We&#39;re all out-of-towners, but my brother recalled as we approached the airfield that Munson had crashed and died at there. Our subsequent discussion led me to your account. Very thoughtful write-up.Dan Brekkehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03261150572253464576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20986789.post-41701021614866849292009-05-14T10:43:00.000-04:002009-05-14T10:43:00.000-04:00Chris was my cousin and we had so many great times together as kids. He made the entire Tragna family extremely proud, he was the shining star of our family. Thanks for the kind words and taking the time to post this on your blog - Matt<br /><br />http://tragna.com/chris-tragna.htmlMatt Tragnahttp://tragna.com/chris-tragna.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20986789.post-80135486448664288232009-04-17T21:44:00.000-04:002009-04-17T21:44:00.000-04:00I certainly don't mind you sharing. The intent was simply to tell a story about Chris and I never imagined that many folks would read it.

I was Chris' wife. I was very touched by your blog. I had a good chuckle over the paper writing incident. That was so Chris! I hope you don't mind, but I am sharing your blog with our friends. Not a day goes by that I do not think about Chris. I cherish the memories others had of him.<br /><br />Desiree Youngblood (formerly Tragna)Desiree Youngbloodnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20986789.post-84740303497267211182009-04-15T05:39:00.000-04:002009-04-15T05:39:00.000-04:00Thank you for your kind words! There are so many stories to tell and so many questions to ask... I felt that no matter how much I wrote, it would never do him justice. It's comforting to know that what little I could share about Chris was indeed meaningful, and I truly appreciate your thoughts.Andrewhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08504947581255843499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20986789.post-69548481948087711902009-04-14T11:16:00.000-04:002009-04-14T11:16:00.000-04:00Dear Andrew, <br /><br />I want to thank you so much for writing this blog on my son Chris. It brought tears to my eyes that after seven years, Chris hasn't been forgotten. I was especially moved by your memory of that fateful day and the way you spoke of Chris. I have not been in touch with many people that Chris interacted with at Pax River, so reading this blog was very special.<br /><br />Again, my heartfelt thanks to you and may God bless you!<br /><br />Anna HernandezCharliehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09726855153271610376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20986789.post-16781459478094706292008-06-01T17:51:00.000-04:002008-06-01T17:51:00.000-04:00I have the same problem with my dog. We've slowly been cycling through frisbees trying to find ones that work best and stand up to the destruction. The best one we've found so far is called Zisk by West Paw design. It's bright and easy to see, floats, and stands up to dogs that like destruction. Also it's recylable in the even that the dog does destroy it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20986789.post-74205036260135075352008-04-01T17:51:00.000-04:002008-04-01T17:51:00.000-04:00I got the Kong but it was so heavy that I didn't think it flew well. I've also tried the Durabone (I think that's the name) It's an actual Frisbee brand product and has held up well. But, it too is quite heavy and doesn't fly well.<BR/><BR/>JGMAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20986789.post-14000782348388611072007-05-08T21:02:00.000-04:002007-05-08T21:02:00.000-04:00Thanks! As a general rule I don't like the treadmill, but sometimes it's nice to see how certain paces feel. Have fun running!Andrewhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08504947581255843499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20986789.post-80711299374505694532007-05-08T20:40:00.000-04:002007-05-08T20:40:00.000-04:00I have sort of a love/hate relationship with the treadmill.....on the one hand it helps get me going when I'm psychologically out of it, and yet it makes me yearn for the outdoors and fresh air. Good luck on your 1,000 miles. I'm sure you'll end up at 1,500 by the time it's all said and done.<BR/><BR/>Jonathan<BR/>www.seegundyrun.comGundyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00446437059363864127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20986789.post-47850085308727319542007-01-19T02:22:00.000-05:002007-01-19T02:22:00.000-05:00Hi Andrew,<br /><br />Thanks for the fine sock review. I work with Bridgedale and it's refreshing to see the wonder of socks given the respect they deserve!<br /><br />FYI, the Active is a style that can still be found in stores; but the newest styles (X-Hale Multisport - available now at retail - and X-Hale Cool Lo - new in '07) are worth a try...these combine 360-degree around the foot venting with targeted cushioning where most needed. And...a three year guarantee!Boonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20986789.post-1150120836729006382006-06-12T10:00:00.000-04:002006-06-12T10:00:00.000-04:00At least you didn't get chased by dogs or bitten by one like you have in the past! You didn't mention that statue dog you told me about.Amandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02722668248157185889noreply@blogger.com
