Meeting up with an old Friend

So Ben got to Iraq sometime this summer, around June I believe, but I hadn't had the chance to see him. We are at different locations. We often go where he is, but I hadn't had the chance myself to go there. I found out I was going there a night in advance, so I told him I would be coming. It was really cool to get to see him. It gives you just a little taste of home. Of course, just like always we end up talking about old times and stuff from home. On other news, I get to go on leave on September the 6th. Tara and I are going to go to Hawaii. Needless to say I am really looking forward to that.
