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."

Brunch sounds fine to me. So May 16 at 12Noon at On the Border in Miami Lakes 15301 NW 67th Ave (place was chosen to be close to an expressway artery for all of the travelers). It is also North enough to lessen the drive for Broward people, but south enough to make the Miami people happy (and the keys! :)
Sound good?

May 16 is a Sunday and I can probably get the day off how about brunch instead, our church is out by 10:00 I could make it to Miami Lakes by 11:30 or 12:00 what does everyone think??

Janie -the keys? wow..you are traveling a bit to visit. I look forward to meeting you!!
I am assuming the 16th of May because 4/17 was too short of notice.
Here is my suggestion - 5/15 (Saturday) at 8pm for a dinner at On the Border in Miami Lakes 15301 NW 67th Ave (place was chosen to be close to an expressway artery for all of the travelers). It is also North enough to lessen the drive for Broward people, but south enough to make the Miami people happy (and the keys! :)
All of this is negotiable...it is just my suggestion. :)

I live in the keys so Miami is even better for me. It would be hard for me to make it to miami by 7 as I don't get out of work until 6 or 6:30 are you talking May 16??
-

I live in Miami, but will be willing to go up north a bit. Whatever is in the middle. :) Friday the 16th in the evening would work for me. Maybe around 7ish? What do you think?
