Busy, Busy Bee

That is my life the next couple of weeks.  I will not have a lot of blogging time, and you will notice this across all of my blogs.  I have 3 freelance jobs going on right now that will be keeping me busy.  We also leave for DisneyWorld in 10 days, so I am trying to get ready for that too.  The cool thing is that I figured out how to take pictures with my phone and have them post here, so I will try to do that daily.  If I can get Bill to agree to let me buy internet then I’ll do some blogging from there (don’t count on it though).  I plan on writing up reviews on my travel blog when we get back.

I hope to see you all around here but just wanted to warn everyone that there may be a slowdown.  icon smile Busy, Busy Bee

Louisiana National Guard spokesman Maj. Michael Kazmierzak said Spc. Jonnie L. Stiles had been serving as a gunner on a Humvee doing route clearance when and IED detonated near his vehicle in Jalalabad, Afghanistan. He said the job typically involves checking roads for bombs and insurgents.

Stiles’ wife, Launa, said that he was nearly killed last month when a suicide bomber blew up a military vehicle in front of his. She said he was still able to rescue three other soldiers and returned to duty before his 30-day recovery period was finished.

“He was strong and really cared for his men,” she said.

Stiles was born in Bartlesville, Oklahoma, and graduated from Littleton High School in Colorado. He served in the military for 17 years, first joining the Marines and then switching to the Army in 1999. He served three years at Fort Carson, left the Army and then returned as a member of the Colorado Air National Guard in the Summer of 2007.

These brave men and women sacrifice so much in their lives so that others may enjoy the freedoms we get to enjoy everyday. For that, I am proud to call them Hero.
We Should Not Only Mourn These Men And Women Who Died, We Should Also Thank God That Such People Lived
