Finally made it to Pittsburgh but we've been waiting over an hour for the courtesy van to take us back to the hotel to get my car. Then it's a two hour plus drive home. I'm going to crash!! Good lick on your trip to Florida!

I'm so sorry MountainMama. I hope you can get out early today. We fly to Orlando this afternoon so I hope all goes well. My grandson is looking for me (that would be my son's 85 pound puppy)

Well my perfect weekend has not had a good ending. We boarded our flight and it left on time but 5 minutes before the scheduled landing, they turned us back around and we are stuck here at Ohare for the night. Apparently, Pittsburgh is having a blizzard. Oh well, what can you do but roll with it.

Wow what an incredible weekend. I can not believe the change and how much my son has grown up. It was so good to see him and spend family time. Brought him some comfort foods, We took him to dinner, breakfast and went bowling. He is heading to Florida for A school. We ended up leaving Saturday evening to head home before snowstorm hit Minnesota. Will have to ask if or how to get a copy of PIR. I think the sailors might be able to order a copy.

What a great weekend! Got home to sunny CA. It had just started snowing at Ohare when we left. Whew! Glad we missed a possible storm. Had the best time with our son. We just relaxed at the hotel, did some shopping and had some great meals out. I brought his phone and computer with me so he loved being able to get in touch with friends. Unfortunately, I had to bring them both home with me. He ships out on Wed. to Pensacola so when I get an address I'll be able to send them to him. We did do some shopping at the NEX on Saturday morning. That was fun! I forgot to order a copy of PIR though. Does anyone know if we can still order one and where we might get it? I'm so upset with myself. Too much on my mind!! :-)

Got in this morning from OHare at 4am. Soooo tired, but worth the trip. I loved seeing my Sailor and catching up. He is pretty much the same, just better and soo focused. Leaving him yesterday was so hard, but knowing we can talk, txt and fb makes it easier. Not sure if we are going to see him in A School, but he will have a break in June that we may make a trip. I hope everyone enjoyed your few days, sorry I couldnt meet up with you at the Meet and Greet. We had a whole big group with us. God Bless our Sailors!
