Annnnnnnnddddd...He's off!

Michael leaves....for a very long time. :-(


Michael in his Prowler:

Michael left this week for the better part of a year. He'll be gone for the next 30 days aboard the USS Eisenhower doing workups (practicing) for their upcoming deployment. He'll also be spending time in Fallon, NV and for a second time on the Eisenhower before deploying in February. He'll return in August 2009. Check back here, Nikki will post updates when she hears from Michael.


Michael will be home for the Holidays, and would like as many people to visit as possible. Give us a call, and we'd be happy to have you over for a few days!

View from Michael's seat in the Prowler:

Michael won't be available by phone while he is gone. You can e-mail him at mpcraig@uwalumni.com; but he'll only be able to check it once in a while.
(Also, please don't send pictures, forwards, etc as they will be filtered out of the system on the ship.)


If you'd like to send Michael mail while he is gone, please call Nikki and she'll give you the FPO address. (262) 374-0562 or (360) 682-6410
