Well it is pretty quiet in the Walker household. Owen left bright and early yesterday for his 2 month deployment to Al Udeid in Quatar. He should return mid June He will be quite busy, flying as much as possible. He is living in a trailer that is split into different rooms with each room holding 2 people. The bathrooms and showers are in another trailer and they have a food hall where they can get things to eat almost 24 hrs a day. They are allowed a TV if they can find one and one computer that has to be wiped clean before they can use it. Not too pleasant but could be worse I guess. We are able to email and he calls whenever he gets a chance. I talked to him yesterday just long enough to let me know he made it and was doing fine. As for me I am doing better than I thought I would be but I am trying to keep as busy as possible with work. The nights will be the hardest and the longest but I guess I will manage, right. I am planning a trip home the end of May for a couple of weeks to help pass the time and I can't wait to see everyone again. Well that is it for now. I will keep you posted. Feel free to write or call I would love to talk to everyone or just come visit that would be great. :)
Here is a picture of Owen taken on the morning of his deployment.

Hey Sara, It has been great reading up about your adventures in England and with the Air Force. I have recently joined the Air Force and am with the USAF Band of Flight at Wright Patterson AFB in Dayton, OH. The Air Force is a bit different than the Marine Corps in all the good ways! I will be deploying to the Middle East as well in January of 09 for 60 days on a USO type morale tour. Anyways, hope you get through Owen's deployment ok. Talk to later.
