After 30 days haze grey and underway

I just spent the past 30 days haze grey and underway doing some exercises getting ready to head back out to show the flag, put warheads on foreheads, and defend the four points of light; whatever other sort of buzz phrase for foreign policy is being used in either the 5-sided wind tunnel, Halls of Wind, the garden of roses, and the halls of academia.
Overall it was fun and full of adventures with even more coming for a port visit to Southern Florida. Even cooler was doing the same with members of Royal Navy.
I am glad to be home and can't wait to spend the next month at home and spend it putting it back together.
