Another 5ish year update for Slim, likely the only OG from back in the day left I assume. Washington, Sicily, promotion, Puerto Rico, back in Hawaii, headed to Florida next.
Small world, that's where I was born... I appreciate the kind words, with children it is always a debate about which would be better; the stability of growing up close to home and family versus the exposure of living and learning about the world and its people/cultures. Your words grow my...
