Getting on with it

I left on San Diego on Saturday morning. Natalie dropped me off at the Naval Station and we said goodbye. It was sad to see her drive away but 8 months will go quickly and I feel a sense of relief finally getting this thing started. Sooner started..sooner finished.

We departed for South Carolina and arrived without incident. We were bused to the Fort and put into on open bay barracks with 40 other sailors and only two showers and one washing machine. It will get interesting......

We embark on training starting in a few hours. People who have gone thru have given positive reviews of the training. I suspect it will be what is needed. Working with the Army will be different.

I intend to post twice a week and include pix and hopefully some video.

Love to all,

Fran

  3. Hi Fran,
    Just trying this out to see if you get the message....great to know my neighbor is a 'crack' shot...I plan to tell any crooks to watch their butts as they're out the door....
    I get to see (and hear) the boys a lot, they seem to love the backyard for creative make-believe adventures and just having fun. We're having a B day party for K-man next Sund. and Natalie & the boys can make it....should be lots of laughs, we'll let you know.
    I'm getting together a collection of books to send over, as we talked about.....just let me know when you're ready for them. I hope you get this note....truth be told, I don't even know what a blog is.....Take care buddy, Ned
