Greetings November

Greetings and hello, fine blog readers. October was a long month! At work, we are prepping for peak shipping season, so that was stressful. Fortunately, I had a vacation! We went to Disney World, and then I came home and attending a Civil Air Patrol Conference.

Springfield Regional Composite Squadron received the Cadet Squadron of the Year Award, and one of our cadets received Cadet NCO of the Year. I was very proud!

Other than that, life is pretty much settling into normal. I do get to go camping next weekend! That should be cold. If anyone has a good temperature at which Starbuck should not spend the night outside in a doghouse filled with cedar chips, let me know!

This little bit of news made my day. Crazy people who protest heterosexual soldiers' funerals because God hates gay people now owe one parent nearly $11 million.

On a lighter note, want to see a video of a Star Wars Storm Trooper dancing on the streets of Japan? Pretty funny. And some kickin' music.
