Visiting Colorado

I came out to Colorado for a conference specifically for Air Force Public Affairs Reserve members. This has been an opportunity to meet new individuals in my career field who are a part of the traditional reserve units, IMAs (like me), and full-time Reserve individuals.
We received a lot of great briefings that has me leaving with some good take-aways and some new things to consider as I work towards determining the path I want to take with my Air Force career.

I was also able to use the time out here to visit with a friend I met when I first joined the Air Force as she and her husband moved to Colorado Springs. They will be working and supporting different aspects of the U.S. Air Force Academy.

It was wonderful to see them and meet their son for the first time. He was born the week AFTER I visited with them in Florida last year. :)

I also had a fun time playing "tourist". I went to the Garden of the Gods, Pikes Peak, and took a tour of the Air Force Academy.

Here are some pictures from Garden of the Gods...I'll be posting more later:
