Bagram to beach
Well, I have made it back home. It is surreal, strange, and amazing. I am thankful for the experience, even more thankful to be back home, and most thankful for my amazing wife and children. We went straight to Lanikai beach from the airport to wash away some of Afghanistan- the perfect homecoming. I hope to be in touch with friends and family as the next few weeks roll along.
Thank you for tolerating my ramblings.
Warmest Aloha,
Joe
