Single-Digit Midget

With the the rain, and the mountains, and all these damned squiggly roads, Pennsylvania has generally sucked, BUT, admittedly, I've had some bad-ass down hill rides.

AND...

I was, as of yesterday, only 9 days away from home; I am now officially a "single-digit midget" or in military parlance...I'm short.

SO...

Overall, I'm happy...just a little worn out.

Entering Pennsylvania

Tyler... glad you are down to single digits... the 350 folks from all over the world prayed for safety as you return during these next nine days.... Short Timer's sometimes get sloppy... take care and continued safety as you complete your journey.... Your book has prompted many a conversation with soldiers and veterans here at Holden Village. Best regards john
