Tracy and I are going to buy some gorgeous pieces of furniture during the next three years. Of that we are almost certain. It pains us now to see so many beautifully crafted antiques (book shelves, schrunks (armories), desks, tables, etc.) and know that they're out of our reach for now. The pieces you see pictured here were all somewhere between...

Last Tuesday was to be the day we would move into our little German castle; the day when the dust would every so slightly begin to settle from our transition to military life; the moment in which life would start its crawl toward, quoting W.G. Harding's presidential campaign slogan, "a return to normalcy." Harding didn't deliver on his promise a...

Today Tracy took me to see the house we'll be moving into on Tuesday, Nov. 3. That was at the end of our day, though. The story actually begins the night before when DeAnna and her beau Andrew drove from their place in Mannheim to visit me and Tracy. It was late in the afternoon when they came to Baumholder, where Tracy and I are still at the La...

It is hard to describe the joy that I felt on the 21st, when I was taken by ambulance to Lourdes airport and saw the C21 (Learjet) and its US military crew that were to take me to Landstuhl. Although the care at Lourdes was excellent, there is something innately comforting about being with people of your own country, their voices, accents, manne...

This is where the Air Force base is and its only about 7 min away. It's basically a little America here...they have everything from gyms and a pool to a shopping mall. It's really convenient and really nice to have a place to work out and somewhere where I understand what everyone is saying and what's going on...but I'm in Germany! So I am going...

So I technically live in Henschtal, but it's easier to say Glan-Münchweiler because its the town next town over and a bit bigger. Henschtal is beautiful! We seriously live in the country and it's such a neat change. The people are really warm and friendly and sadly they all speak English...the Elsner's know everyone and I am quickly meeting all ...

(82 miles) We started the day in Luxembourg along the Moselle river and got to a point where Germany was on our left across the river and France was right in front of us. We crossed the river into France and began some pretty good climbs. We then cut into Germany in order to ride back to Forbach which is in France. Our first teaser of Germany we...

Voyager c'est une bonne occasion de mettre ces vaccins à jour. Certains peuvent être obligatoire comme le vaccin contre la fièvre jaune, voire celui du choléra (même si pour ce dernier c'est interdit par des règles internationales). Pour plus d'informations cf le site www.astrium.com On peut prendre un kit de médicament. C'est la seule chose que...

i cant belive the flight was so long and i couldnt sleep on the plane. but in the end all was worth it. 14 hours after the start of my journey i was happy i took the chance to do it. every thing exept the castles look a lot smaller, took me a while to get used to the driving ( the roads are verry small) a lot of people just park on the side of t...

My mind still can't form coherent thoughts. At present, I'm living on pure adrenalin, ecstasy and excitement borne from one of the most incredible moments ever. By now, you will all be familiar with the socceroos exploits on the finest afternoon in the history of Kaiserslautern and perhaps Germany. Thus, I will spare you the details of the 3-1 v...
