Hi Barbara!
Looks as though if I want to hear from you, I'll have to move to Connecticut...what the heck, I'll just stay in the Southland. How's your sailor? Mine has determined that he is happy enough where he is for now and is staying another year. He should find out within the next few weeks if he made E5. He and a couple of others went to the DMZ for a day trip a couple of weeks ago and then they rode back down to Seoul in a Blackhawk. He was excited about that. Otherwise, I'm going to school and waiting for him to come home late winter or early spring for a few weeks.
How's school for you now? The rest of the family? Maybe you are still coming down South in a few months? Vikki sent out a PM, Ellen responded and said that they have had another death in the family and that Jim had hernia surgery recently. Been missing you but I know how hectic it gets, and it sounds as though you've been knee deep in the Conn. group. Keep it up, Lady! and keep me posted on how B. is doing.
Hugs,
Mary

Hi Barbara,
I am coming up for the parade. We went last year and had so much fun!!! That's odd that you can't request anyone but they can add you. My page is acting up too, its very slow. Hope to see you next Sunday :)

Hi Barbara! I"m from the Bethel (CT) area. I would love to know about that NY (border?) group of Navy moms who get together - that would probably be closer for me to be able to get to! Could you hook me up with some upcoming events? Thanks. Suzan

Barbara,
I was thinking of Rock Hill when I replied at the main page but if I'm not mistaken Fort Mills is even closer to me than Rock Hill. I know I've seen commercials for Fort Mills Ford on TV so I know it's not too far. I believe just over an hour away. I'm in Hickory, which if I take 321South to Gastonia, NC (25 mins), I'm almost right on the state line. There are several places in SC I can get to in just about 45 mins to an hour.
We took I-81 all the way from Wytheville, VA to Alex Bay, NY then NY 12 and 37 over to Massena. I love looking out over the 1000 Islands and dreaming about having a house out on one of the islands. lol...Oh well, maybe when I get out of school I'll have the money to play the lottery again and win the jackpot. Then....It's only four hours from Massena to Albany, so it would not have been that far to CT. That's a beautiful drive as well, along the Hudson and Lake Champlain. We did take a side trip Friday down to Lake Placid for the day. It rained the whole time we were there but it was away from school, home, groceries, etc. All total it's about a 14 hour drive but that's stopping for one meal and either one or two gas stops, along with a few pee stops. Just a frog's hair under 900 miles.
I'm going to get on to bed. I do hope you can come south soon though. It would be so awesome to get to meet you. Maybe by then Anna would be settled in enough to come for the day and we could all meet up together! Either way, I look forward to it!
Have a wonderful day tomorrow and a good night tonight. Prayers for all of you.
Love,
Mary
