I have arrived at Fort Jackson, South Carolina. I dropped my mom off yesterday in Maryville, TN and left this morning to make my way to Fort Jackson. I got here at about 4:00 or so and immediately met another "recruit." We headed over to the "BOQ" (hotel) and got settled. We then took a jog together and went over to have some dinner at the Post Exchange (basically a Wal-Mart on the Post). It has been a fun filled day.
Although I hit some traffic in the Pigeon Forge area, I did find a great little barbecue place. It was pretty good for fast food. I then drove on I-40 through the mountains of eastern TN and western NC. Wow were they beautiful! I tried to get some pictures, but it was kind of difficult.
The fun begins tomorrow. I am heading over with Joe, the other Chaplain Candidate I met, to the Protestant Chapel service tomorrow. It should be fun. Then on to the Commissary to fill the fridge.
I'm trying to upload pictures, but something is not working. I may have to shrink the size of my pictures. We'll see. Stay tuned for more.
