I was able to meet Clark in Rhodes, an Greek island, for a week. I got back on Monday, and I wish I could do it all again! Not only did I get to see my husband for the first time in five months, but I got to spend time with him on a beautiful island. We hung out on the beach, visited the shops, toured the historical sites, ate the food, and enjoyed being together again! The water was so clear and blue! You could see straight to the bottom of the sea. Our hotel was right across the street from the beach and a ten minutes walk from "Old Town Rhodes," the medievel part of the city. The week flew by, but it's great to be moving on to "Life after the Navy."
Clark is in Virginia this week doing paperwork and getting ready to leave. He and his brother Russ will set out for Salt Lake on Monday, but will travel by way of a couple of baseball games and some stops with friends and family. Those guys are two peas in a pod and are bound to have a blast. Dad and the kids and I are leaving from Texas on the same day. We are going to make it to Salt Lake on the 2nd and stay with some of my relatives there while we wait for Clark and Russ. We are planning on getting up to Idaho on the 5th of July. I'm praying for an uneventful trip and that the kids will somehow decide that they enjoy being cooped up in the van for hours on end. Idaho, here we come!

Beth... just checking in on you and forgot that you were thinking of that trip to Greece a few months back - I am so glad you ended up going and that you and Clark got all that time together. I am terribly envious of your trip and your week with just you and your guy! You both look amazing and we are very happy to hear that Clark is on his way home and is safe. Good Luck with your ventures to Idaho.

Ok...I'm with Callie and totally envious as well of your trip to Greece. You guys honestly deserved that after all you've had to go through! I guess you're in Idaho by now...good luck getting settled, etc.!
I can't believe you are done with the Navy! You've definitely "paid back" though and it is so exciting that you can move on to the next thing. I love all your pictures - Greece looks like it was amazing. And you look so good - I can tell you guys were in heaven just being together again! :)
