A Final Note from the Al Anbar Province

"Well, I won’t be able to post for a week or so. Let's just say that at long last I will be doing some extensive traveling. When I can, I’ll check in and keep you all updated on the incredible voyage I am about to embark on. The next post will not be written here in the Al Anbar Province, within sight of the city of Ramadi, this city I have come to know, and to fear. It will be written from a safer place, though now unfamiliar.

Change is once again upon me. Anxiety and excitement mix into an strange potion that portends a shining future, a sunny path in a thick forest, an island of solace in a sea of chaos. The taste is bitter sweet, but still I gulp it down with every breath."

I am always happy for my milbloggers when they make it back home, and sad like if I've lost a good friend, one that talked to me everyday. It's a bittersweet feeling.
