Well.

two things.
I dont get permission from my CO to walk in military uniform and we couldnt find a hotel in the area.
Second and more important , my father in law ( you know him, Jan ) is diagnosed with a deathly form of cancer.
He will die soon, but we dont know when ( the doctors couldnt predict with certainty) so I dont want to go far away from home the coming months.
