My Brother Josh

My brother Josh recently separated (honorably) from the US Navy as a sonar technician on the submarine USS Buffalo.  He has been "in between" jobs, homes, careers?, etc. for a while now as he stays at my parents house and works simultaneously to find a decent interim job and finish off a few classes for his associates degree.  In the meanwhile, we have had the great priviliege of having him hanging around here in TX with very little to do.  What that means to us is that he comes out here on a fairly regular basis and just hangs out for a day or two at a time.  It has been absolutely great.  The kids totally love him, he cleans up after himself, and loves to help out around the farm.  Last night, we were out working on a new chicken run till about 10:30pm and it was great just having a pal to hang around with.

During his latest visit, we ended up doing some very interesting stuff.  I wish I could explain it as well as he did, but if you'd like to have a quick laugh, read his blog entry about the events. 
Here's a teaser:
