Reforger 1985

Reforger was a training exercise that took place in Germany during most of the Cold War. I took part in Reforger in the winter of 1985 (January 19th - 31st).

In this picture, the sign on the front of the M113, "The Rock or Bust", refers to Ayers Kaserne in Kirch Gons, Germany, our home away from home. Best known as the rock. I was part of C Company 2nd 36th Infantry which was part of the 3rd Armored Division.

I've added a few other pictures at flickr.

Mexico in 12 Days

We are just 12 days from our trip to the Dreams resort in Mexico. Linda and I were in Mexico a few years ago. It was a fantastic vacation and we're looking forward to a relaxing week in Los Cabos. I'll spend most of my time relaxing with Linda, yet I do have one excursion planned.

Fishing in Cabos is spectacular and a fishing trip with several friends is already planned. I've fished for Croakers off the coast of Delaware, Haddock off the coast of New Hampshire and I look forward to catching some fish (maybe tuna) off the coast of New Mexico. The fishing is good this time of year and I hope to post some pictures to prove it.

Beat Boxer

Wesley (our resident beat boxer) will enjoy this video. This kid is pretty amazing.I don't think I'd want to use the mic after him though.

Happy Birthday Ricky

This is what happens when your birthday is close to St. Patrick's Day. You can always count on Ricky to ham it up with a good hat!

Molly Likes the Snow

Whenever there is snow on the ground, you can be sure that Molly will follow you around, hoping that you'll kick some snow her way. She does like being in the snow, yet in this video you might get the impression that she actually hates the snow. You decide.

Amazing Stuntman

We could always count on Renee to do back flips. The guy in this video has taken flips to the extreme!
