Jean's New Do and the Brown Tree Snake!

Here Jean is, purposefully looking sad, just before she had her hair cut this week. For those of you that have known Jean for a while you aren't surprised by a new haircut.

Here she is, much happier, and probably about 2 pounds less. Jenna at the hair salon on base did a great job, although Jean may be heading back for a little more "off the top".

We hope all is well back home and miss you all. I thought a little crazy blog about my beautiful wife was long overdue. Take care and we hope to see you all soon, Scott.

Oh, by the way, I finally had a run in with the legendary brown tree snake. Jean and I were out on a walk this evening and it happened. I being the protector of my beautiful maiden jumped to action. I planted my size elevens squarely on his head. The beast did not go down without a fight and several jumps from my 193 pound frame. I am sure some young child riding their new tricycle to church tomorrow will find my kill. (For those of you ready to scream about animal cruelty, the brown tree snake has been credited with killing the islands bird population and we are ordered to kill all the snakes we can. The USDA actually has a multi million dollar operation doing just that, hey maybe they owe me!)
