Farewell Amanda
For those who don't know, my cousin on my mom's side of the family, Amanda Clark, is leaving for basic training in a few days (AKA Boot Camp). A few months ago, she announced that she has enlisted in the National Guard, and that she will be training to be a drone plane pilot. She first heads to Boot Camp at Ft. Leonard Wood, Missouri. Once she has graduated from Boot Camp, she heads right off to Ft. Huachuca in a small town of Sierra Vista, Arizona, which is 20 miles from the Mexican Boarder. She will be their for schooling till September, where hopefully she will be stationed in Portland, Oregon, which is where she has been living. For the past month and a week, she has been living down here at the farm, and we have done alot of cool things, from going to Sea World to the San Diego Wild Animal Park. Things have been great. The hardest thing will be not having her at our camping trip at Yosemite this year. I will be going with Amanda, my aunt, and uncle, down to San
