OORAH! That's awesome that she's a marine. I don't know why so many people have the idea that female marines look like men. You don't have to resemble a man in any way to be strong and tough.
Love it Bob! I'm leaving for bootcamp in less than 4 months too. I should post a journal so people don't think I'm dead. 
Semper fi!

Of course I'll write! Once I get out of bootcamp, I'll still have internet access. However, if you want me to write you WHILE in bootcamp, I can have my sister post my address as a journal here so that everyone can see it. Thanks Bob! It's a privilage- I'm paying my debt to society in some way, because I haven't been for the past... I don't know how many years haha. xD
Your grandson? Is his shipdate on January 3rd? Because that's my shipdate too. xD

That's a nice one of ~Vivenrican and a very intense image. As ever, I admire how skilled you are at tapping brilliant color into the curvature of the forms you draw. I detect some yellow and green on the lapels and shoulders, and I'm trying to find some violet in the color-action around here eyes. Also, knowing your current drive to focus in on the eyes, this one wows me--all of the searching and admiring continually brings me right back to them. A wonderful addition to your gallery, Uncle.
