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."

Enjoyed some fat snowflakes this afternoon ladies! Anybody jealous? Yeah, probably not huh? :(
Happy New Year Everyone <:o)
Saipan - I think it is the one that is called Veterans Park now. It was man many years ago that he built it
So excited ladies! Going to fly my kiddos to spend the summer in AZ which means that I'll get to fly back at the end of summer so I'll see my new nephew TWICE! Plus next Christmas as my uncle is planning on coming from FL and I promised that I would bring the kids out no matter if hubby is pushing or not. He's fine with it, it's not like he was home this Christmas!
BADma-it's ok! I am too.
NanaDonna- yes, we know Metcalf and it has gotten a little bigger over the years even though they took away our Dairy Queen! My sister just bought a house in York and her MIL lives in Duncan. Sis is a teacher at the elementary school in Morenci now. Which park are you talking about in Clifton? the Veterans park or the big kids one near the pool? That one is pretty awesome.
Nana..... She is south of Marana .Her address is technically Tucson. ,off I10 and Ina.
Badma - by outside of Marana where do you mean? We are in the Dove Mountain area so not reallyi n Marana, but our mailing address is Marana
NanaDonna... my mother in law lives just outside of Marana. We were just there last weekend!
Saipan.... so sorry. I am geographically challenged.
Saipan - I know exactly where Morenci is and have been there a lot of times. My husbands Dad was born in a town called Metcalf which was very near Morenci but is no longer there, mostly buried by the tailing from the Morenci mine, have you heard of Metcalf? I also know where York and Duncan are and have been to both, my husband's Uncle lived in York. Another of his Uncle's build that big park in Clifton I bet you have been there. ha ha.
We live in a town called Marana (Kathey might be the other "M" ton you are thinking of)and it is a suburb of Tucson.
