I was 20 years old when I joined the Navy.
Twenty years later, I’m retiring with a cool project:
My kids and I are going to open 20 hobby boxes, one from every year I served.
2007–2026 as the 20-box core, with 2027 as a special retirement/finale box.
I’m collecting one licensed hobby box from each year, and every Friday I’ll share the next box along with a piece of what was happening in my life and Navy career that year.
Some are already on the shelf. Some I’m still hunting down.
When all 20 are together, we open them.
20 years of service.
20 boxes.
One retirement rip with my kids. ⚓️
This is 20 Years. 20 Hobby Boxes.
