Hey Doug, good to find you here at Facebook, I LOVE your blog! Your girls are SOOO cute! I haven’t finished my bachelors either….I was 10 credits away when I had to quit school, and I haven’t made it back.
My hubby and I have been married for 16 years this last 9/11. Looking forward to getting to re-know you via Facebook. Oh, and I’m in Spanaway, outside of Tacoma.

Thanks Joe, yes I will be there for camp (looking forward to it very much). I won’t need to give one of these to Sensei for a while yet, but it was something that had been on my mind (which is what this space is for).
