 | Pete Deakon February 1 | I surprised the family and took them to the Air Force Academy Men's Basketball game the other night. The Academy puts on a good show in all the ways they can plan and perfect (sound and lights etc.), and then everyone knows that the basketball skill just isn't going to be there because it is a military academy. But the game was fun to be at and I have to admit this was my first time back on an Air Force base/installation since I separated over 11 years ago and it felt kinda awesome to be around like-minded folks. The highlight of that like-mindedness was when the grandpa-type guy behind us saw A- light up when she saw his popcorn and he just offered her some straight out of the red pin-striped box. It was more than wonderful moment. Also the other day, I did the toddlers' laundry and when I folded their clothes, I found that all the socks still had their pair. That too was a moment covered with awesomeness. Which moment felt better? Hard to say. But it's been a good week, that's for sure. | | | |  | You can also reply to this email to leave a comment. | | | | |
