6 Years Ago Today...

Today marks the 6th year anniversary of Scott being commissioned into the Air Force. At the time we lived in Hudson Ohio. Scott was working as a retail pharmacist and owned his own pharmacist staffing business. The hours were grueling. Many nights he was not home to eat dinner with us or say goodnight to the boys. Business kept him on the phone non-stop when he was home. On more than one occasion Scott would work the same store 2 or 3 days in a row 4 hours from home. On those days he would stay overnight in a hotel and come home when the shift was over. That was when Scott decided it was time to make a change.
Our neighbor, then Capt. Bill Sanchez, did Scott's commissioning at Kent State University. We had no idea what we were getting into.
What a young bunch we were in this photo! Our lives were about to change BIG time. We have had a wonderful 6 years, learning so much and traveling the world. We support Scott in his decision. We have really bonded together as a family in the past 6 years. Just think honey, only 14 more years and then you can retire!

O, I made it back to San Antonio. They even upgraded me to first class from Vegas to Houston. I hope you had the same all the way back to Guam. Yet another "comp" that found it's way to us. What a week. i will remember it for quite some time (At least what I can remember of it). Happy Easter to all the Olechs and we look forward to having you back here in civilization soon. --JIM
