Michelle,
how's your sailor doing? Saw a news item today on navy.mil; always one of my greatest fears when my son was underway. Hope all's well with you.

Hi Everyone,
Marcy - spring must surely be on its way, can't be long now : ) Easy for me to say though when winter here is balmy compared to where you are. Things were warming up here for a few days but now there's some weather headed our way. Could be as much as hail and snow for the summits, or nothing much, haha.. we're not sure.
Early March I spent a few days visiting my sailor son and the USS Harry S. Truman, first time. Got a private tour, woo hoo! I'm still in awe. We had a great time and I'm adding pictures of our visit to my "Truman Wall". I feel that ship is part mine, having followed their recent deployment so closely. And Norfolk was awesome. I like it there, loved the old houses, the crisp (!) weather. And the people were very welcoming. Truman is in the shipyard now, will be for some time.
So much going on. Japan, the Middle East, and our sailors in the midst of all those challenges. My thoughts are with them, and with you, their families, every day.

Well I want to be where you guys are. It has been cold here in PA and we have had some snow not a whole lot but enough to drive someone crazy. Can you guys send some warm weather our way, blow really hard and maybe it will get here next week. Actually come Monday and Tuesday it is going to be almost 70 here, rain but warm. I sure will take it. How is everyone? We are going good here, like I said it has been just too darn cold lately. Hoping this is our onion and Easter snow. It is hard to believe Easter is only a few weeks away. Well have a good night.

Good morning ladies, Hope you all are great. It is raining here for now and expecting storms this morning and then some snow tomorrow. We here in Western Pa aren't getting much but up north is getting hit really bad. I have relatives in Oswego, NY and they are getting almost a foot of snow. OH lucky them. Well I hope your weather is good where ever you are.

Just wanted to tell you guys Happy St. Patty's Day.

Well he said not at where he was anyways. I am so sorry for all the destruction to any of the ports and houses. I can't imagine living thru something like that. I am glad that family was away and not home too. He probably just didn't see what was damaged yet. It is funny to know that a country bumkin like my son would be were he is and see what he has seen in his navy career so far. I am sure he was scared he just won't tell mom if he was or not. I just know he was really tired because they didnt get much sleep over all of this. I am sure you guys are too. Thank you Daysleeper for informing me of what actually went on. I will keep you guys in my prayers and hope things back to normal soon for all of you.

Hello all of you. I was so worried about you guys down there as well as my sailor. I also have one in Japan in the Airforce. He is in Misawa and he said they are helping the peopleof Misiwa deal and get back on their feet. He also said a 8.2 earthquake hit them as well. They are 200 miles north of the 8.9 earthquake. So I had nervous breakdown the other day. I was in tears all day not knowing what was going on. My boys are okay. My sailor is on Oahu and they called them back to the ship Thursday nite. He shares an apartment with a friend. I am so glad it was not as bad as they said it could have been down there for all of you. Was there damage to anything and what exactly happened? I hope all of your sailors are doing well and hope they get to where they need safely. It is scary no matter where they are going.

Wow Michelle, that is amazing that your son was there to get those Americans. Well I hope for his safe return and all of his ship mates.
Pueo, thank you. How is it living in Hawaii. Like I said my son is down there and to talk to him you would think it is the worst place in the world. I live in Pa and we got 10 inches of snow the other day and now it is raining. The weather is crazy here right now. I don't like this transition month. I will check out the other Hawaii site as well.
