Lori south again 6 Mar

6 Mar Chris in Chula Vista, keepin the home fire burning...

Lori went south again yesterday, 10-day trip.

Getting alot of questions on why she trips south so much, I don't, and we're apart alot.
Answer: we don't have a home office or sending agency that takes care of our affairs, so somebody has to stay back to do that. There is not enough mission income for both of us to be in-country 'most time', the support amount has dropped to where one of us needs to work and supplement the finances.

Missions is like a fighter-pilot team: to do the forward deployment of one fighter jet, there is one pilot... and 122 crew behind that pilot that fixes the jet, refuels, loads the payloads, etc... one lone pilot won't survive long in combat without the 'DO' team.

So, I'm more the 'DO' team these days... Lori the fighter pilot...
