I'm very excited. I hadn't heard from the soldier I adopted and I was starting to think I'd go to the post office and try to make the insurance claim. At least then I'd know if the package made it to him.
I got an e-mail from him this morning. He says he loves the quilt. I guess it's winter over there too, so it's nice to have it. He apologized for not writing quicker, but I told him not to worry about. I'm just happy to know he got the package. He said the motorcycle magazine was grabbed before he had a chance to look at it. I sent an American Iron, but he said that most of the guys are into crotch rockets, so I guess that's what I'll send next time.  |

he said that most the guys are into the crotch rockets....but what is HE into?? you don't need to supply them ALL!! Glad he likes the quilt. I know that Balad Iraq had snow sometime over the december timeframe, so it DOES get chilly/cold there! By the time I get there, I will have the other problem....it will be 120-140 degrees...... |
