We've been bouncing around a bit of late. A family member has been hospitalized in Minnesota. I'm starting to think the only times we go to Minnesota someone has to be in the hospital. Hopefully in the absence I haven't completely lost everyone here.

A few weeks ago I ran into a couple of guys from the Cav BN out of our Brigade. I won't put details on here without checking with them, but they are doing pretty good. I'll be seeing them quite often in our Amputee clinic.

I am trying to keep my ear to the ground so I can be here when we have guys coming in. It is a bit difficult with as much time on the road lately, but I recently ran into a buddy who is the new Brigade liason. That should make it a bit easier.

Still up and around on the leg. We had to put alot of stuff on hold, but I did get in to get a new cast made. I am losing weight again and the stump is shrinking. Still up and around all the time. I haven't been in my wheelchair since JJ and I left Minnesota in January.

I hope all is well back up there, I saw on the paper today that the Russian is pretty hot. How are the bears/tourists this year. See ya, Josh
