Hi to my wife, Melissa, and my daughter, Melinda. I love them very much and I miss them. Having fun, wish you were here. That's an inside joke with my wife. Work is good, it's keeping us busy. The weather is getting a little warm; it's not snowing anymore, that's for sure. Missions are fun — first time I got to speed in a military vehicle. It's nice scenery when I go out to the forward operating bases. Hi Mom and Dad. Hey Dad, wish you were here. Would be nice to drive with you. Hi to my brothers and sisters.
