Yes, I believe they are able to have them. My son said they do not have much space for much of anything, but they make do.
Hello all, I was just wondering if anyone has heard of the Rackpacks and if they are allowed to have them on the USS Tortuga? I am trying to come up with ideas for Christmas.
Thanks
Leah

Carol said… - Princess, I called American Airlines directly and spoke to a rep in order to get the good, non-published fare/trip. She gave us an itinerary we couldn't have booked online, so it was well worth calling. Go here: http://www.mwr.navy.mil/mwrprgms/itt_airlines.htm for numbers to call. All these airlines, in appreciation for military service, have special rates you have to call to take advantage of. Best of luck!!

- You had a bad storm? No, we just received a thunderstorm and beautiful lightning. We did have plenty of rain, but we need it with all the new gras growing. I sent you a message, but I talked so much in it, that I had to finish up in a second one. I forgot to ask - what is your daughter's major? Talk a little later - laundry calling. TLynn

Theresa said… - Hi Princess,
Haven't heard from you in a while. Hope everything is well. How is Mike? Ryan sounds very tired; I think it's the heat, but he's hanging in there, I guess. He's never been one to complain so I never really know.

- Princess: Life has been CRAZY! Seems like you and I were going through some family stuff about the same time! My aunt in Mesa was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer about 6 weeks ago. She was in St. Joes and then transferred to the rehab facility where I work. I'm the ONLY family in the Phoenix area....so, you can imagine the rest. She will move to Tucson the 7th....I have several siblings there....so life should calm down a bit.
Cory if ready to test for gunners-mate. He left on May 25th for some kind of training excercise....he called at 3 AM that day and said "I just called to say I love you, mom. We're headed out now.". I , of course didn't know where "out" was and he couldn't tell me. We had no (zero) contact for the past 7 weeks....but he called yesterday and was back in Virginia. He had been in Africa!!! I made plane reservations last night and will be flying out to see him on the 23rd.
I can't believe Michael gets to go to Australia.....that's one place I've always wanted to see. My second son, Brett, went for his high school graduation trip and said it was amazing!!! Have him take lots of pictures. Just exactly what is "crank" duty?
So your daughter wil be off to school in Ohio soon. Pre Med, isn't it? You must be so awfully proud!
Looking forward to meeting you in person...we're still on for Last Chance, aren't we?
