Settling in...

I've enjoyed the good fortune to have beer in Munich, Espresso in Milan, "health water" in Chesky-Krumlov, Coca Cola in Atlanta, Kir in Paris, and countless other experiences.

However, I never grow tired of having a glass of water on the family deck.

There are houses and there are homes... It's good to be home.

Good fortune...

Last week, the results of the annual Command Board were posted. The Board will give me a chance to Command Boat Division 93. This Boat Division provides port security and harbor defense in an expeditionary environment. It's an extremely capable group of sailors with whom I've worked in the past. I couldn't have received a better honor.
