To do something nice for some really hard working Americans. One of my readers is organizing an effort to send e-mails to Sailors who are deployed. In case you have not noticed, and judging by the mil blog posts-many of you have not-the Navy is just as busy as the

Under construction………
And……we’re back! The weekend in Nikko was just great. We had a great time and it was a lot of fun. Pix are coming later on in a subsequent post. I upgraded to Word Pres 2.5.1 and despite the “easy” install instructions-having problems getting every thing to work. So I
