Days 50-53 (Mon-Thurs May 18-21, 2009)

(Unemphatically) Yay, lectures...again

Once more I find myself uninspired to expound on the details of these days. In a lecture series entitled "ECADC"...I have no idea what that stands for...as is the case for many of the acronyms in the military...we learned about insurgency, counter-insurgency and strategic level processes. Honestly, while I believe I could recall and demonstrate the proper action illustrated in these classes should the need arise, for the life of me, I cannot describe their content. So, let's leave it at that and chalk it up to a week indoors.

However, given the gloomy, "sour-puss" nature of the first paragraph, the end of the week brought anticipation and elation. As you may have noticed, our week ended on Thursday. The Army, in all their splendor, granted us a 4 day weekend beginning on Thursday at noon...very cool. Isabella flew in that evening and after her drive from Kansas City International Airport, she picked me up and we had some BBQ at the Whiskey Creek Steakhouse. I have been incredibly lucky to have Isabella come out to visit. She's awesome! After dinner, we returned to the Navy Lodging to relax before leaving for Lincoln, NE in the morning to see the Payne and Hutt families.
