On the high seas...

This is a picture taken from the Navy website (www.navy.mil) of James ship on their recent deployment. James has been in Latin America for the past three weeks on his very first deployment ever! The following is taken directly from the navy website:
080814-N-7643B-003 PACIFIC OCEAN (Aug. 14, 2008) The amphibious assault ship USS Tarawa (LHA 1) leads a group of U.S. Navy, Peruvian navy, Colombian navy and Chilean navy ships during a photo exercise during Fuerzas Alidas (FA) PANAMAX 2008. Tarawa is participating as the command and control ship for the exercise. U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 3rd Class David A. Brandenburg (Released)
James has been super busy working on quals, and we haven't been able to talk much, as the phones on the ship have been down and the internet only works part of the time. It has been hard being alone in San Diego, especially since my transmission went out in my car and I’ve gotten sick (surprise!). But my good friend Laura has been keeping me busy, as she promised James she would take care of me! She is amazing! :) Just last night we went to an ubber fancy restaurant for a wine and food pairing. It was incredible! I can’t wait for James to come home so we can experience San Diego together!
