Just remember, kids: SAY "NO" TO SNOWBOARDING! The darkest day ever was the day they opened Aspen Mountain to snowboarders.


Either that, or it should always be snowboarder season .... with no bag limits!

At least if you had cows, you could have one mean BBQ...

and you mean the helo guys aren't up for a snow boarding adventure? I figured they'd be all over that.

c'mon Vinny,

you should know by now, pilots are sissies.

but in there defense, the altitude of the current snowline is so high it makes helo operations dangerous. air is to thin. so will have to wait until winter realy sets in and the snowline comes down a bit.

and as for bbq, we have one every Sunday. but the best days are Fridays. surf and turf. we grill steaks, shrimp, lobster tail, and every know and then get crab legs. :birthday:
OK, lets make a deal. If you stop telling me how to dive, I'll stop going down to the bus station at 2am to slap d***s out of your mouth.

Just use one each 5.56 or 7.62 round on the cow. For heavens sake...dont use the chain gun or you will have hamburger.....but that is cool if you have buns!!

All the way.....

Brad,
It sounds like our cooks are using the same book. Tonight we had steak and fried shrimp, but tomorrow is leftovers. At least our adopted dogs out here won't go hungry. The cookies are awsome though!

I know what you mean about the air...very bad for helo ops. Take care.

Home at last.

stepped off the plane to a cold NC morning, and the wonderful sights, sounds, and smells of fall foliage (any foliage at all is a wonderful sight).

it was a long plane ride back. i spent most of it in a drug-induced coma. lol. they told us we had 3 layover, i only remember 1.


but it was a far better ride than the silent trip made by 4 of my brothers.

they have returned to their homeland as well, and have been laid into their final resting place. sleep well brothers, for we shall carry you always in our hearts, and continue the work you could not finish.

you did not slip quietly into the night, we witnessed your rage against the dying of the light.

Glad that you made it home safe and sound. Thank you for the reminder that not everyone does and that there are people willing to make the ultimate sacrifice to protect our many freedoms. Sometimes it is easy to lose sight of how fortunate we really are. Take care, glad you're home.
I tried to contain myself, but I escaped!

Hey darling....I am relieved that you've once again defied the odds and made it back home safe and sound. I know you'll deploy again way too soon but for now...I know you've earned some much needed R&R. I wish I was going diving with you this coming weekend in Fl....but alas I have a sister and neice who will be 2 years old having their birthdays that weekend! I'm lucky I have family so close and that I can spend birthdays with them. :cool2:

We'll dive another time....and thank you again for the job you do so well...to keep us so fortunate as to be able to dive....live as we want...and yes...even spend happy birthdays with family! -ww

Brad,
Glad to hear your finally home safely. I'll see you sometime this summer and hit the wrecks off the NC coast. The 701 is calling!

May your brothers rest in peace knowing the sacrifice they made was noble. And may they continue to watch over and protect us through the long night that is war.
