Back in Ft Lewis...YEA :(

Well, my week long of training is done and I am back in Ft. Lewis. I will have to say that Leonard Wood never seemed so nice. The school house went out of their way to ensure we got what we wanted from them and the accommodations were...Lets just say, I lived in a palace compared to here. Yes I am spoiled but it is nice being able to have your own shower and bathroom. Because of my rank I had a nice suite. It is the small stuff that makes life bearable sometimes. Glad I had the opportunity.

I saw some pretty amazing wrecks on the way to the airport today while in MO. They had maybe 3 inches of snow while were leaving. The base was pretty much closing down for the day. While on interstate 40 (lucky for us) all the accidents were on the opposite side of the road. There was at least 25 miles of backed up vehicles and I lost count at 15 the number of semi's, cars, and trucks that were piled together in some from of wreckage along that span of highway. I only saw one wrecker and maybe 3 police cars. Those poor folks were going to be there for hours and hours. I did see a group of kids playing hackey sack next to their vehicles.

Happy trails.
