Thank you guys for asking! He is doing very well. He works 12-hour shifts, so it's hard for him to have much time with his family, but he still enjoys his job at the Command Post. He has had no repercussions from the emergency appendectomy he underwent last fall.
I would love to go up there, but he says right now he's just so busy, he wouldn't be able to visit. Piper and her mom are doing well, too. :D

The Banana Tree Test
There is a very, very tall coconut tree and there are four animals, a lion, a chimpanzee, a giraffe, and a squirrel, who pass by. They decide to compete to see who is the fastest to get a banana off the tree.
Who do you guess will win?
Your answer will reflect your personality.
So think carefully
Try and answer within 30 seconds
Got your answer?
If your answer is:
Lion = youre dull.
Chimpanzee = youre slow.
Giraffe = youre a complete nincompoop.
Squirrel = youre just hopelessly stupid.
Why? A coconut tree doesnt have bananas!
Obviously youre stressed and overworked.
You should take some time off and relax!
