Thanks for your post to The BIG "X". It's a new twist on an old subject and it needs all the help it can get to survive.

The heck with the days; ride your avatar.

Congrads on posting for 100+ days. Wanna be Gas Buddies?

Have a great Labor Day weekend buddy.

Congratulations on being #11 on the Thirty Day Points Leaders list.

We always drive. We usually stop in Medford or Grants Pass the first night and then go on the rest of the way. This time it will be Grants Pass. Each segment is about 500 miles. We're leaving early Sunday and will be there Monday evening to be at one of his parties. Our housing there will be on the Navy base. Nice housing from what I have seen in the past. The family is already living in Hawaii for his next assignment. Not on a submarine.

Not much is up. I've been outside weeding. We'll be going to Kitsap, Washington, next week for my son's change of command as Commander of the USS Louisiana SSBN 743. Here he is on the left. Click on his picture. http://www.louisiana.navy.mil/chain_of_commandb.html
