Okay, I'll send just two. Does the guy in Georgia have one of our knives? These probably won't go out until Thursday.

No, he doesn't...I sent one to Maj. Wes, but this is 1LT Gene...his wife is the preschool director at our church and mentioned to me a long time ago (when he was in Iraq) that he liked Celtic music. That got me started sending him music, pennywhistles, and such...once a month is my routine and I stuck with it till he came home. I did this separately but at the same time as the Afghanistan stuff.

One of the most moving things that I ever had happen to me was when he came up to me after returning home...saw me in church and although I knew his wife well, I didn't know him well...he came up and just hugged my neck...shook Steve's hand. We still have the letter he sent us from Iraq in Steve's Bible.

He's a great guy and I'd love to send a Hobbit Hole Care Package to him!
