Subject: Back from Vietnam

Back from Vietnam in time to tip a legal cool one with Tommy my son on his 21st birthday today.

As soon as I finish my written thoughts and daily diary of the trip and figure out how to sort the pictures I will get it out.

The trip was interesting yet somewhat disappointing. Also experienced stronger emotions than I anticipated especially near the 051 bunker area where the battle for TSN TET '68 took place, and my friend Ric and I laid a wreath for all the fallen for both sides.

Saigon, Hue, Hoi An, Da Nang and Dong Ha are beautiful where tourists travel, but poor areas are unchanged except for TV and internet. The heat and humidity was as bad or worse than I remembered.

Happy to be back in the USA !
