Since early July we have moved to Altoona, PA.
Its been hard adjusting to living up here in the mountains after living in the midwest for over 30 some odd years.
I marvel at the thought, when my grandmother and some of her family moved from California to Indiana.
When I was 8 years old.
It was easy for me to adjust, I hope my grandkids will adjust much as I did back then.
My Rose is that age now.
Come 1 September, our baby Angel Marie will join her big sister.
AJ will be by his lonesome, poor guy.
Well, so much for all that...

"Excellence doesn't just happen.
"To control the past,
"They were the best you had, America,
and you turned your back on them". ~ Joe Galloway ~ Speaking about Vietnam Veterans HONOUR THY SERGEANT AND THY CORPORAL:
You can take the man or woman out of the Corps,
You can never do more,
you should never wish to do less."
~ Robert E. Lee writing to his son ~
It must be forged, tested and used.
It must be passed down.
And woven into the very fabric of our souls.
Until it becomes our nature."
~ General Charles C. Krulak ~
31st Commandment of the Marine Corps
Is to give meaning to the present,
And direction to the future."
THAT THY DAYS MANY BE LONG UPON THE CORPS
But you can't take the Corps out of the man or woman!
