Operation Enduring Freedom
On a warm night in June, at 1AM I dropped Mark off at Fort Lewis. That was our final good bye and though it was filled with tears and was very difficult, we made it. His deployment to Afghanistan will be about a year in length. On the blog, I'll post e-mail updates from him as I hear from him to keep everyone up to date on all the information I receive. Thank you for all of the love and support through this process. I am so grateful.

June 20, 2010
Hi All! Happy Father's Day! Today was a really great day. I slept until about 0700 and then showered and went to breakfast. We lounged around for a little while, and then around noon we played some basketball and did some abs before going for a short run. After lunch I took a nice nap. After dinner me and some LT buddies played a few rounds of cards before calling it a night. The weather was gorgeous, probably upper 80s, maybe low 90s. There is a low of 73 tonight. Honestly I think it might be a bit cooler to sleep outside. (I won’t.) I was able to talk with Angie for a few minutes last night. That was good. She was at one of the spouse’s house for dinner so she actually had a bit of a heads up that I would be calling, as the spouses husband was sitting on a phone right next to me as I sat down. I tried calling Dad a few minutes ago, but he was at church. I will try calling him again in the morning by me (Sunday evening by you). No guarantee. It looks like KC (Kandahar City) is gona be hot this week. 108-110 degrees. I’m pretty excited about that, not. But I’ll be alright. I have been drinking tons of liquids here, but I have a hunch I am still going to need more once I get there. Again, I will let you all know as soon as I get a chance when I do arrive in KC. I hope everyone is having a great Father’s Day, especially Dad, Dan, and Nate. You all are awesome! That’s about all I’ve got. Catch you later.
Love, Mark
