John would be so upset to have his guitar lost to limbo...he flew with it to GTMO. I will tell him to make sure he takes it home to Jacksonville the same way.
@Lisa maybe our sons will know each other also.

I will miss the GTMO "family" , but the next journey in his Navy career will take him to Mayport/Jacksonville in January. We have lost him to the coast!!

Connie: I know our sons are good friends - I have seen lots of pictures over the past year. We are so glad Alex is home safe and sound and he got both packages he sent home a couple days before he arrived here. He is so glad to be home, but isn't happy at all with the weather - going from 90 degrees to 26 degrees and snow. :(

Lisa, the Navy will ship his things in their pack out but it probably wouldn't be a bad idea if he shipped anything he will need for the next few months...! Cam left GTMO in September and still has not received his! Motorcycle, guitars, etc. all out in space somewhere!

My son is coming home from GTMO in approx. 3 weeks. He said he is going to be shipping some of his things home, so I told him to start now, as it will take 2-3 weeks for his things to arrive here. He really surprised me when he told me how much money he had saved while in Cuba. It turned out to be a good thing after all! I will be so glad when he is back in the states - even tho Florida is far from Illinois - he will be able to use his cell phone again.

Gals, try to get them to send/take their stuff with them . . . I shipped Cody's "new" PS3 gaming system at a cost of $60!!! I think the Navy offers a "pack out" or "ship out" thing where the sailor can ship their things ahead of time to avoid their Mom's having to ship later.

Rana,
glad to hear its not just me. maybe someday they will listen.

I remember one broke moment of clarity when I looked at our video collection and said # x $20 = WHAT!!!! How did I spend that much money on DVDs!!!

Hopefully one day soon my kid will do the math and stop spending.

When we had the fund for your future talk John said he is putting some away. Ok, what can we do? Just be there to say "I told you so" like my parents did - lol
