As I sit here in Sun River, Oregon, I see many people on bikes. They are families riding together.

My whole family went to the tennis courts this morning and beat up the tennis balls. It was fun to watch.

Turning my thoughts to Ukraine and Russia. Russia is completely out classed by the Ukrainian soldiers. Many of the current Russian fighters have never had a day of training. They are sent to the front to be slaughtered.

I wish the people back in Russia could know the truth. Putin would be long gone if they did.

I am in the process of interviewing a submariner. Not just any submariner, but a nuclear submariner. Incredible interview. This should be enough to buy my upcoming book, Signs of Hope for the Military: In and Out of the trenches of life.

I also talked to a Vietnam veteran who is deciding if he will allow me to interview him. He has an amazing story. (He had a bayonet go through both legs in an one on one fight.

I am going to get political for a few lines.

Our country seems to be going in the wrong direction. The leadership is doing things I do not agree with:

  1. The Southern border…That is a joke! Doesn’t seem to be any restraints of who can come across the border. Drugs are getting through also. Terrorist are crossing the border as well. Needs to be cleaned up.
  2. Inflation…I have heard that people aren’t buying Hygiene products now, because of the cost. That could end up being smelly.
  3. Gas prices…Sky rocketing.
  4. Interest rates… They are so high no one can afford to buy a home.

I was honored when I went to get my COVID vaccine a couple years ago. I was in a huge line waiting my turn when a National Guard soldier came up to me and told me to follow him. He took me to a spot where I was next to get my shot. Probably was because I was wearing an Army hat, and was using a cane.

The military is getting weaker, because not enough civilians are enlisting. This will become a problem very quickly if this doesn’t turn around. They may have to start the draft again. The military changed my life in a very positive way. Please talk to some of your civilian friends to check into enlisting. They won’t regret it.
