I am not sure what kind of car that is, they do drive on the wrong side of the road. LOL I know Stephen bought a cheap car down there and he loves it, he can get around, also has a motorcycle. I know the Navy use to ship big items but with the Government being broke who knows what they will do now.
Carrie, we do need a spell check on here. LOLOLOL
My stupid smart phone spellchecks for me all the time!
Donna - He will definately need a mode of transportation, so I would say yes if the Navy will ship it. Jamie went and bought a motorcycle from another Sailor as soon as he got to Naples. However, it does seem like they travel in groups (thank goodness) and someone always has a car or they rent one.
It is a little cooler here today was really nice around 85 and a nice breeze.
Carrie I have seen some of the pictures posted by Amber or maybe you they are really nice, I saw them on fb.
Hope everyone is doing good, have a great week.
Have a great weekend everyone! We're enjoying the cooler temps down south and am glad to see the 90s go away!!!
Happy Friday! Hope everyone has a good weekend.
Carrie did you want to give me that address for that little boy?
Pam we have been up there also it is very nice and a lot of water fun. We had a nice time in MI now back to work YUK! LOL
How was everyones Labor Day? It was hot Friday and Sat., but really nice on Sunday and Monday it really cooled off.
Stevesmom we are glad you are here with us.
