Brian, it's good to hear from you - teamwork exercises are good but it sounds like they've got you out there doing real work. I can't imagine a field where teamwork is more crucial than your new one. Lives depend on it and I know you are up to it - you've always been a team player. I'll be praying that your leg holds up to the training. The timing sucks but I'm glad to hear you're determined to be successful.

Laura, glad you're settled in and getting down to work. Your class sounds challenging but I'm sure you'll do fine. Leadership training will come in handy not just on the resume but when you get out into the workplace.

I'm hoping that both you guys will be around for the Family Reunion in December.
