Been a little while!

Well where do I start, sorry for not updating this in a while, just been really busy I suppose. About 3 weeks ago I left for Astoria OR to the coast guard cutter Steadfast. I spent 3 weeks patrolling the OR coast doing mostly fishery boardings, but we also had about 3 search and rescue cases, only one where we actually helped a broken down vessel. When I first got there it was a little weird, I was used to knowing everything about the boat and what do, but when I go there I was like the new guy alllll over again. After about a week or so all the other deckies were pretty cool with us and we actually started having fun. It was also nice to be down in the "real world" for a while and have quite a few days in port, where I also met a girl Allison. Not exactly sure whats up with the whole thing, but we are going to keep talking. Lastly it was time to trek back to Alaska and start training the new guys here how to get underway. I sorta missed the ol girl (my boat) Im glad to be back for a while.. Next up, Bellingham Washington, then the Bering sea!
