Hafa Adai - Welcome!
Phil and I have been very fortunate to be given the opportunity to learn about a new culture and area of the world. We are so greatful for this gift and are looking forward to all the new adventures that lay ahead. I have started this blog to help document our experiences and explorations during out time on Guam. My goal is to make a weekly update to help us stay in touch with our family and friends and to share some of our thoughts and experiences that we encounter along the way.

NAVFAC Hail and Farewell

A few weekends ago we had our Hail (Welcome) and Farewell (Goodbye). I must insert here that this is one of the biggest joys and sorrows of being in the military-
Joys: Exploring new places, meeting new people and making new friends.
Sorrows: Saying goodbye to those new people who are no longer new but have become a part of your "family".

Our wardroom has a hail and farewell every quarter. Of course we love to welcome the newcomers and saying goodbye is bittersweet. But this was a hard one because we have such a large group leaving us this time!

The faces we have come to love
The Cavanh's







The Scott's
The Brus's


The memories created will always be held near to our hearts.


OPS and his warriors

Fair Winds and Following Seas
Until we meet again!
Cavanhs, Scott's, Pines, Witt Featherson and Lauren Cook, Brus's, Alan Eichelman, Tom Hartung
