Tomorrow I will fly from the U.S. to the Middle East in my first international leg of my deployment. I have been here at Ft. Benning for a week longer than expected because of my late arrival due to the weather in Atlanta last weekend. After hanging out and reading for a week, I will board a plane sometime tomorrow (time unknown even to me) and fly across the Atlantic. The days here have been very hectic--once I was able to start processing, so I will be glad to pass out on the plane for a few hours and relax. I expect to be at my first stop for about a week before being forwarded on to my final destination. There are so many people that have to get moved around that it seems to take some time to catch the flight you need.
Thankfully, I have had time to reach some family members by phone and say farewell. I apologize to those I did not call, but know that I appreciate all of you who support my family and my mission. This is an easier task because of your support.
