I missed the Marine Corp Birthday!!!
I missed Veterans Day!!!
I missed the first anniversary of my blog!!!!
My first experience of celebrating at the Marine Corp Birthday Ball is one I will never forget! Being the innocent Preacher's Kid and a new wife of a marine, I did not realize the punch was spiked! Enough said!!! I leave the rest to your imaginations!
For Veteran's Day, I was reminded of the first mil blogger I began to follow, Lumberjack in a Desert - jrsalzman.com A few weeks after I began reading his blog he was wounded. I have prayed daily for him, and his wife also, as they deal with this. I do not know either of them. Now he has gone and won BestOutdoor Sports Athlete! And he looks great, don't you think?
( The Jungle Hut is the house with the palm roof and tin roof add on.
My husband took this on his last flight over the village.)

And then the anniversary of The Jungle Hut!!! It was an accident, I never meant to start a blog! But I have enjoyed sharing my simple stories with you all and have been amazed as I see the new people stopping by to read. It is helping me as I gather my thoughts for the book I hope to write and get feed back from you all as I post short stories from the jungle and my life. Now, all I need is an editor to fix my awful grammar and punctuation and typos...

The year goes quickly, doesn't it?? I am glad to hear that you are writing a book. I hope to do that someday as well, with the two children, on our journeys through their "issues" - which is on my sidebar at this time.
I listened to the English version of your post below - Yay for the Prime Minister of Spain - I can hardly stand to look at Chavez' face!
PS - I just learned that our missionaries are most likely going to have to leave Venezuela as well. So sad.

Happy Blogiversary!!!! I am glad that I found your blog and it just proved to me it is a small world! Finding out you knew our dear friends in VZ was so cool.
We are in prayer for the Greenwood family and all missionaries in VZ.
You're really going to leave us hanging with just "spiked punch"?
Your stories are anything but just "simple". They are amazing!
That's odd. My father in law was a former Marine, who landed on Okinawa among other places. He became a Baptist Missionary, and spent 30 years in Africa. My wife was raised there, until she went to college first in France and then back to Mississippi.
