Working at Wainwright
Today I completed my first day at the higher command element on base. I must say I hate being away from the boys. It appears already that I may be of some assistance as most of others I’m working with basically don’t know the overall plan and are inexperienced. I guess I might be of some benefit here. :-)

Second to last day with the Squadron 15 May 2013
Second to last day with the Squadron 15 May 2013 On the 16th I’m set to be cut away to function as a liaison officer between the battle group and the rest of the exercise. I’m of mixed feelings, I’ll miss the Squadron but if my leaders feel I’ll best serve as a conduit between them and the exercise controllers, I’ll simply do my best.

And so it begins
Leaving the comfy confines if Petawawa. Enjoying my first army box meal of the trip at 0500 and playing every soldiers favorite game. Where is my field cap? Did I bring my gloves?….and so it goes.

May 1st Shopping Extravaganza
For those who don’t know me well, I’m in the Canadian Army. I’m off for an Exercise a couple thousands kms from home for a period of 5 weeks. The Regiment gave 2 days off before departure. I took advantage of this time to go to the mall to grab a few things for my rucksack. Being gainfully employed, I forgot: 1. The first day of the month(ish) Is when the social assistance cheques turn up. 2....

A sunny Sunday morning, regaled with Donna’s tales of burlesque dancers at the mess last night. Strange, but my evenings at the mess consist of beer and work related stories shouted over the sound of the assembled mob. B-)

A Busy Wednesday
A busy Wednesday for Donna and I.  We drove to Ottawa for a medical appointment for my wife.  She received some very positive news, more to follow on that another time.  From there we went to the second Restaurant we learned about on You Gotta Eat Here on the Food Network. Video from the Episode here , if it still works.    I had a cool burger and poutine, bad for me sure but really good eating....
