It has been a while since I did a post. You see I have been on a semi vacation and respited. I took a couple weeks off part time from work so I could travel to Portland and visit with my family and see my new grandson Jackson. Even though I had to work a few hours each day via teleconference, I had a great time.

I can’t say my body was a recharged as a normal vacation as I spent a lot of hours driving but a lot got done and I got to visit with old friends and family I only get to see a few times a year if I am lucky. Hey I even caught my trout limit one day letting my love of fishing and good company take my mind to another place completely.

However that is not my post for the week. My wife sent me a link to a book that I found intriguing. Yes her office is in the next room and she is always feeding me little tid bits of information she reads on the internet.

With an absolute minimum loss of American lives, CIA helped to defend Laos from communist takeover and helped to inflict significant damage on the North Vietnamese Army’s infiltration and supply line, although it never actually cut that line.
