Vet's Day weekend

Well, here I am at the beginning of our first 4 day weekend. Things are going well here, and I'm learning way more than I ever wanted to know about the Army. The classes are actually much more interesting than I thought they would be. A lot of regulations, but like I said, I'm learning a lot about how things work in the Army. My classmates are pretty cool and we have a good group. I'm pretty excited (that's what she said!) that we can have a coffee maker in the classroom (my doing).

In case you're wondering what I'm doing this weekend, I'm going camping to the Smoky Mountains. It was supposed to be a group thing, but everyone else backed out, so I'm going by myself. Coincidently, Michael from the tv show "The Office", is also going camping by himself this week. I just found it funny that it worked out that way. I am actually taking more than Michael, who only took a knife and duct tape. I have all of my camping stuff in my car, as well as some MREs from my last school. I'm only going for one night, but am looking forward to getting away. Unfortunately I have to come back and do a presentation and short paper for my class.

By the way, a camo Bud truck came by the other day and restocked the AG school. Thanks Budweiser, for supporting our troops!
