Finally Some Good News; Out of Iraq
On a personal note, a quick update about my brother Jonathon who has occasionally written here on my weblog over the years and for nearly the last year has been stationed in Iraq as a Captain in the Army.
On Monday he finally finished up his tour doing EOD in Iraq and returned home safely. He and his girlfriend promptly boarded a plane to Mexico for some well deserved R&R.
We’re extremely thankful he’s come back safe and sound and are proud of the service he’s given to his country.
Here’s a picture of him with Emerson from last July 4th when he was on leave.

I live in the Washington Heights neighborhood of Milwaukee, WI with my wife Jen, our daughter Emerson, and son Carter.
