Day 63

Today was a long day, but I had a lot of fun.  After I took Gabe to the bus stop, I came home and finished a few things.  Then I went to LINKS for the day.  I mentioned doing a LINKS session back in March; basically, it's "Marine Corps 101".  I decided to start volunteering with them as a mentor (mentors teach the different parts of the workshop).  I don't do mentor training til next week, so I went in today to help with anything that needed done behind the scenes.  Once I got home, I just relaxed.  Gabriel had eaten dinner at a friend's house, so Taryn and I did a 'fend for yourself' night.

This being Wednesday, here's what everyone is waiting for:


I still haven't made it out to look for things to hang the chains up, so we're making do with hangers.  The chains are doubled over, and are still about as tall as I am (if not taller).  We're only a sixth of the way through the deployment, so imagine these six times longer than they are now...wow.

And on that note, I'm off to bed.  Til day 64...
