Ron has many lifelong friends from the time he was deployed with the USMC on the MEU. He's kept in great contact with a lot of his fellow Marines and was able to catch up with one of his past roommates while we were home for Jeffrey's wedding. Dave has been deployed several times to Afghanistan since these two were bunk mates but luckily he was home on our recent visit to NC. With a weekend so full of organized activities it was hard to pin-point a time for them to get together so our only option was to invite good 'ole Dave to the wedding!
Dave had never met Grant but said he felt like he knew him because he's an avid reader of our blog. Dave paid a visit to Toys-R-Us before his visit and bought Grant several "big boy" toys. His girlfriend wanted to know if he had bought these things for himself and Ron, or Grant!
Grant loves his chainsaw, it lights up and he loves to put on his goggles which he calls, "glasses!"
Watch Out World!
Ron and Dave also spent a lot of time discussing their goals in life while on ship and both agreed they wanted to own a Donzi one day. One can dream right?
Dave bought Grant (or Ron) his very own remote control Donzi speed boat!
Grant (and Ron) had a great time driving it on the lake behind my parents house!
I think this speed boat will do for now or forever if you ask me!
Thanks for coming to see us Dave and spoiling Grant rotten!
