Steve Magee and Me During a Washington Sunset
The Team At Camp Muir: 10,500 ftDear Friends,
2025 Garry Oaks has officially disbanded. Luke deploys this weekend and I follow about a week later. We've actually already moved out of the house into Mark Lee's new place down the street. It is a temporary home for most of us given our upcoming schedule. We had our last meal together at McNamara's last week since Tim was leaving for 2 weeks vacation. It has been quite a ride here the last year, but I have to confess that it has been the best year of my life so far. It has been so rewarding and fueling to be around guys who share common interests and a common goal to tell others about Jesus. I hope that I can find a similar situation when I return in a year. It has been great.

In more recent news, I finally visited Mt. Rainier this last weekend with a few friends. We hiked from Paradise to Camp Muir which is the base camp for everyone going to the peak. It was cold, windy, and breathtaking. The ascent was a smoker, but the descent was a blast as we tumbled down the glacier snow as fast as we could. Who knew that you could ski with regular shoes? Anyway, this Thursday is my Brigade Ball which should be fun, and then Friday is my going away party with Luke. It will be another full weekend.
