Vacation in San Juan, Peurto Rico


Jason got a two week leave before the deployment and was needing some R&R. Michelle was getting ready to graduate from High School and was having a difficult time accepting the fact that after having finally met her brother, he was going to spend the next 15 months at war in Iraq. I asked Jason if he thought it would be a good idea to invite Michelle to join us for a couple of days on the beach somewhere in the Caribbean. He thought that was a great idea. So Kenny and I took Jason and Michelle to spend a couple of days on the beach in San Juan. The weather wasn't exactly what we were hoping for but we had a lot of fun inspite of the grey days. The sun finally came out on our last day there. Here are a couple of pics of our stay.

I had the pleasure of meeting the guys Jason is spending the next 15 months with when I went to pick up his truck one week before he deployed. I met each of these guys parents that night as well. Their parents should be very proud of their sons. They are all highly skilled and brave young soldiers. Please keep these brave men in your prayers.
