A New Adventure!

This firefighter is headed for a new adventure. I have been hired as part of a HazMat remediation team. So. . .I am headed to Iraq for one year. I will be at Camp Taji, it is a very large Air Force installation, housing helicopter operations. I am excited, nervous, and ready for the adventure.
Today was the last day of school at Linus Pauling Middle School, the kids are out on summer break. I will miss those young people so much, they have been so much fun. They are learning and growing and discovering that the things they do will matter some day. They have made me a better person just by letting me share the growing up process with them.
* 1st and 2nd period: you learned so much this year, be proud of what you did!! Happy Birthday K.S.
* 7th graders: you really showed us that you could get excited about a book. Romeo Oscar Charlie Kilo-Oscar November!
* 8th graders: you were a great group! You really rock!! Have tons of fun in High School! CHS look out!
When I was a kid someone once said "to climb higher, keep on the level". I have always felt that was an important message to carry over as you travel down the road of life.
To the adventure!
