> Hi Sandy,
>
> I hope the season is going well.  I finally have a good internet connection since I'm on my way home for vacation. I checked the schedule and it doesn't look like there are any more games left.  Is this true?  If so I'm really bummed.  I was hoping to meet the guys and see at least one game.
>
> Everything is going really well for us.  My team and I thank all of you very much for your support and thinking of us.  Your contributions helped our moral especially during the Christmas season when we miss Minnesota activities the most.  The 5 lb bag of candy bars was demolished quickly.  Then everyone had acne for about a week.  Pretty funny.
>
> For the guys:  I hope everyone enjoyed the season, learned a little about hockey, and healed up from their "battle scars."  (The girls will dig the scars).  Use what you learned this year, work hard over the summer, and you'll achieve your hockey goals for next year.  If you have time check out the Olympic hockey games.  I caught part of the Russia/Slovakia game today.  Absolutely amazing!  1 to 1 tie and a shoot out at the end with Damitra scoring both goals for a Slovakia win.
>
> What I've been up to:  We're getting very crowded with all the new troops coming in.  I'm sure you've seen bits about it on the news.  Infantry guys are pinning down Taliban and moving them out.  The Afghans I work with are conducting missions and getting the training they need.  We're still trying to teach them how to take care of their stuff.  They remind me of a spoiled kid who gets all the new cool stuff and just trashes it.  For example, they received brand new International trucks and the trucks started breaking.  They told us that they were old and needed new ones.  Their trucks are newer than ours they just need to maintain them.
>
> My sister's hockey team (Hutchinson Tigers) are going to the state tournament for the second year in a row.  Hopefully they don't meet War Road and get spanked again.  I'll be home for 2 weeks so I'm hoping to catch a game before I head back.

> Hi Sandy,

> Thanks to you and the hockey team for the letters and care package.  I shared it with the guys and they really appreciated it.  Our internet is pretty slow here so I had to attach the letter separately otherwise there is no way I could have wrote the thing.  If the team is interested in getting some more pics let me know and I'll send some.  Sounds like you have a really cool group of guys to work with.

> Good luck and enjoy the snow.
