[Long Cut]

Thanks, Angel. I've got five more months here to go, and then possibly a two week leave in Florida. Then I have to be a "weekend daddy" for the next few years. I couldn't get an assignment in Florida, So Mrs. Cut decided to maintain our houshold there.

If it becomes too difficult, she'll move to Maine, but we wanted to give our son a stable place to grow up. We love where we live.

We took our honeymoon in the Keys, and we love to take weekends in Daytona.

I miss FL so much I can't stand it, so I know what you mean. .45MAN and I have been trying to find employment there for the past 6 months with no luck. We left 5 years ago because of the economy - now I wish we had tried to ride it out since it is so difficult to return.

Best of luck to you and your family. It must be so hard on all of you, but it sounds as though you have a plan and a strong commitment to one another, so it will work. May God bless you all abundantly!

I love Daytona!

I have a friend who might still be up there in Iceland. Her husband's pararescue, I believe. She's sent some beautiful pictures!

Dh went through NAS PCola, and it's bee-eutiful over there! Nothing like those beaches!
