On Saturday, March 10th, I flew to San Diego to go visit with Tim and Jill. Tim's unit is being deployed to Iraq, so Jill is going home to Dearborn Heights, MI to live with her parents for the seven months that Tim will be gone. Jill and I drove home in their Dodge Ram one-ton extended cab pick-up truck along with their American Bull dog, Mojo. We left from Camp Pendleton at 1 p.m. on the 16th and arrived at home (Pittsford, MI) on Sunday night at 11:30. What a long trip, but the sights were beautiful. Nevada and Utah are the most beautiful states I have ever been thru. Tim's unit left on the 16th (Friday). First they traveled to March Air Force Base in California; then flew to Bangor, Maine just long enough to refuel the plane; then on to Germany where they were allowed to get off the plane while it refueled again; then on to Kuwait. Tim called us from Kuwait while we were on our drive home. He was tired but fine. From Kuwait he is being sent to Fallujah, Iraq where he will be stationed.
We also hear from Nick a lot. He's stationed in Ramadi, Iraq, but is supposed to be transferred to Fallujah in the near future. It will be nice for Tim and Nick to be together. Nick sent us three camera phones in the mail. I took them to Walmart to get developed, and when I get them back, I'll post some pictures from Iraq!
