Shanan

Most of you know Shanan Sabin, a friend from college. He did ROTC in school and was sent to Afghanistan and Iraq after college. While he's been back for 3-4 years now and was working at Proctor and Gamble (in one of those vowel states) he's just been called to active duty. He leaves this week for Iraq. If you've got some good thoughts/prayers you could send his way I'm sure he'd appreciate it.


One of my photos on file for Mr. Sabin. I think it captures his spirit well :)

  3. uh oh. the vowel states are Indiana, Ohio and Illinois. I get them confused. Illinois is getting better since Blake, you, Patrick, and Katherine live/lived there. I don't know what it is but the cities within the states, where they're located, everything just gets jumbled in my brain. They're the vowel states.
