One thing about being a KP grad-- you'll run into fellow alumni and friends anywhere and everywhere. I have known Pat since my first sea year in 1993 aboard the President Eisenhower. He was the Third mate and I was the deck cadet. It's hard to believe that was 16 years ago! We've met up with Pat and his wife Michelle just about everywhere since then: NY while I was still at the academy, NOLA where I had my first job after KP, WA many times and even our wedding in MT (how nice of Pat and Michelle to drive out all the way from MN to attend!!). They are wonderful people and it's always so nice to get to catch up with them. Thanks for taking the time to visit with us, you guys! And Pat-- keep the sea stories coming......!
I have seen Pat a few more times over the last few years than Michelle (afterall, traveling is his profession!). The last time we saw Michelle, I was pregnant with Nikolas. This was the first time they had met. I'd say they hit it off-- don't you?
This is neither of our cars.... =) Like I said, those KPers are everywhere....
