OPSEC - Navy Operations Security
Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind. In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships." OPSEC is everyone's responsibility.
DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.
DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Hello everyone,
Sandy H. - Congratulations--you must be on Cloud 9!!! It's so fun to see the family grow after the empty nest! I can't wait for that to happen to us!
Bea - So glad you are up and around and feeling better. Hope you continue to go that way!
Sorry I will not be able to make the M&G in Santa Rosa. Things are not panning out the way I thought they would, so maybe I'll be able to make it next time. Have a great time, everyone...and Happy St. Patty's Day!!

Stephen C. He'll just have to choose from the four favorites. His girlfriend may join us too. Thank you, I am glad you like the picture I added (you are talking about the one in the group's page right?). Is there a designated Dems section for hubby and his friend(s)? Haha ......... don't worry we all get along pretty well. LOL

Great that you will be there BQB. You mentioned you had three coming. What was the 3rd person's choice on the menu?
Great picture hikermom of "The Villa."
Those attending there is a long driveway going up a hill from the sign on Montgomery Drive to The Villa. That is why there is a great view.

cogurr, I have your recommendations down for the MnG in Santa Rosa. I look forward to meeting you at the MnG.
Enjoy the sun. It is raining in Santa Rosa and thursday will be thunder storms when Ellie918 and I pull out for Coronado.
We fly back to Santa Rosa via Alaska Air. It will be interesting how that will work without Air Traffic Controllers at Sonoma County Airport.
Have safe trip back home.

Stephen C,
We are still in San Diego enjoying the sun/son. Will return home to Santa Rosa tonight. Our lunch choices are Hamburger, Shrimp Louie, Ravioli, or Ceasar Salad. We are looking forward to meeting everyone, Saturday.

Meam came over for dinner and to drop off some goodies for her sailor at Coronado. I hope they brush their teeth after eating all these high sugar goodies. It is good to have visits with other parents. We are in this together.

Cindisue, I do have you on the list and your selection is tallied. Several people have not indicated which of the 7 to vote for. Again from the tally I will select the 4 that will be offered. (Confusing? I hope not) When we get to the restaurant you will put your request in. Cheeseburger and Caesar with chicken are front runners. Look forward to meeting you and your son.
