We are going down to GL for the first time today.  Any tips for the drive down or getting in the gate.

I have sent packages using UPS and Fed-X.  My sailor girl received all without incident.

if sending our son a fed ex package, will it get delivered if the sailor isn't present?

Is anyone out there who's a school in GL starting 9/19?

We always love it when servicemen and women come back into this area and get in touch with us to reconnect. Yesterday Eric Trejo contacted us about coming over today. He joined us for Sunday school and worship at church and then joined us at the house for lunch. Yea!

Eric was in the Army at the School of Music in 2003 and came over to the house on the weekends. He played the tuba. It was really nice to see him again! He contacted us back in August when he was in the area so we could get together. But we were on vacation in West Virginia. He's out of the Army now and lives in California.

Yvonne fixed Creamy Chicken and Broccoli for lunch and finished it off with Blueberry Macadamia Nut Coffee Cake and ice cream.

Eric reluctantly agreed to let me take a group picture of the three of us, and then really groaned when I said yes after he asked me if the picture was going to be on Facebook. Thanks for being a good sport Eric!

My son won't graduate boot camp until Nov 1st. I was wondering if any one might know where he might be going for "A" school. He's a PACT Airman on ship 12 Div 410.

My son is there. He has completed A school and is waiting for C school. There is a separate group for moms of STG sailors. I went for A school grad in July.

Any moms have a sailor in A school at Point Loma, San Diego? I think about 12 sailors left on 9/7/13 to be Sonar techs.

Well, no one came over tonight. Cody's ID card dropped over the side of the ship, and everyone from the USS Ross had to get ready for an underway.

Yvonne and I bought a new version of Monopoly called Monopoly Electronic Banking this week that we were going to try out tonight. So even though it was only Yvonne and me, after dinner we played the new game together. It is really fun! No cash to pass out or count. An electronic debit machine does all the calculating for you. You play with a credit card that adds or subtracts money from your account. Everyone starts out with $15,000,000 at the beginning of the game. But properties cost between $600,000 and $4,000,000. So the stakes get pretty high quickly! But it is fun!!! :)

Yvonne won! She ended up bankrupting me and still sitting on almost $20,000,000. I'm glad it's only a game!! Tee Hee...

timmysmom95--welcome to the group--and congratulations on your son's achievement.  I started sending my son packages as soon as I got his address.  I'm not sure about visits--think it depends on where he is in schooling--phase etc--I'll let one of the administrators answer that!  Each A school and each rate is a little different--there should be a specific page for your son's rate where you can get more specific information
