Vinton is about thirty minutes from Cedar Rapids. Kind of right in the middle of Waterloo and Cedar Rapids. We got hit by the floods pretty bad heere.

Geannette, where is Vinton? it sounds very familiar. I was born and raised in Northeast Missouri, my house was 8 miles from the Iowa line. We were closest to Bloomfield.

I'm not sure how to do this but I was asking questions about VA one day & Kathy C Danielles Mom asked if I had questions she would try to answer I believe her sailor is there. - Does that help you at all?

Exactly I couldn't have said it better myself about the boys... Kyle got in trouble for smiling in the chow line. I hope when we get there they still have that personality and charm they had when they left home :) Thanks for getting back to me...

Hi Geanette,
Thank you so much for getting back to me, i recieved a letter last Thursday from Kyle and it stated he had gotten into some trouble but he learned his lession from it. He said he got some of his priviledges taken away so this explains why there was no phone call. Thank you again for getting back to me....

Hi Geannette, I was just wondering if you have heard anything from Ron lately? It's been about 2 + weeks since Kyles girlfriend and I have heard anything from Kyle and we are starting to get worried. Please let me know.

Thanks

Thanks for support Geannette. I have a meeting with him tomarrow. He wants to go over his expectations of me as a general manager. Like I said I have been with the company for 6 years. Those expectations should already be there. I will let him talk and then I'll give him my expectations of his company. He will have to fire me but I will be there for my son.

Hi Geannette,
Thank you so much for writting. I finally got my second letter from Kyle today! I was wondering when we send the guys care packages what can we send and not send? I know there are restrictions like no food but other than that I am unsure... It sounds like the boys did real good on there testing, I am so proud of them :) Every accomplishment in bootcamp sounds like us making it to the grocery store and getting exactly what you went for! lol... Well I completely appreciate you guys staying in touch with me and keeping me informed of the happening while there are there...

Thanks again,
Brandy

Hi Geannette,
Thanks for getting back to me, Kyle's last name is Williams, so if you talk with your son ask him and I will do the same. The letter I just wrote Kyle I told him I joined the chat room. I can just see his eyes rolling from here! We will be flying back on the 9th of October and we have been looking at staying at the Super 8 also, that's to funny. Are you guys renting a car or are you going to use public transportation? We aren't to sure what we are going to do yet, but we are leaning more toward renting a car. We have never been back and don't know quit what to expect :) Thanks for getting back to me. Have a great day.
Brandy
