Tell Stephen I say hi and give him a big hug for me. LOL I told him it was coming. Just enjoy and be safe, watch you money ok! Tell Amber I say hey, she is such a nice girl!!! Stephen drives a shift and now he has a motorcycle!!!!!!!!!! What is up with that. Carrie you will just die when you see how the drive on the motorcycles. LOL

Robin, I asked for sweet wine and no where to be found. I asked at our last hotel and the ladies was real nice she let me try everyone single one of her wine and not one sweet, after all that tasting I did not need anymore. LOL Stephen wanted to share a bottle of wine with me and Samantha, Paul drinks beer. So maybe they were holding the good stuff back. LOL
You are right about moving our in town, but they did let Stephen go with a friend who was an E4, but I think Amber is a E4 so she has to get off of base.
I will keep my figures crossed for your daughter it is her turn to be a E4.
Hi Carrie!

Carrie, I really did not like there wine I do not like dry wine I like it sweet so I was not worried about taking some back to the states.
-

Stephen try to mail us wine around a month ago and he got it back, so I guess you cannot mail it.
Robin Stephen took his test 9-16 for E4.

Thanks Robin for correcting me I got that from Stephen. LOL maybe I did not listen very well. Yes he is excited and we will be going to Mayport for sure. The ship is in dry dock now, not sure when it will go out again. Robin I have been to the site already, Stephen sent me the website very cool ship. It carries 96 missles and has a copper pad on it, so I do know a little. Florida is only around a 3 hour flight for us so watch out Mayport here we come. LOL I will check out the destroyer site also thanks. Always something. How are you doing Robin?

Talked to Stephen today he has gotten his verbal orders to the USS Farragut (DGG9) in Mayport, Florida. This was his second choice he seem very happy with it, he should be out of Italy at the end of April or the beginning of May.

It is so expensive to buy from the airport. We did not bring wine home it was to crazy with customers, but Amber could mail that. Carrie you are going to have a wonderful time, just enjoy and enjoy your daughter. Yes Stephen still has his stones. I guess the stones are too small to zap so he is on pain meds and meds to dissolved them.
Robin I went to order something from the book on the plane and you had to be traveling somewhere else to get that, it was earrings, they did not carry them on the plane so watch out for that.
Robin I am so glad you had a good time. Don't worry she will do just fine with driving she just needs the practice. You should see Stephen he does real well. Carrie Amber drives there right?

I hear it is very nice down there so I hope he gets it. I will make sure I vist him there. LOL How is your visit with your daughter?
Yes still with stones, OMG I feel the same way!
Carrie I hope it works out better for her then it did for Stephen, his roommate turned out to be a jurk, but I like him on base, he can walk to work so I like that, but he really had a nice place. Maybe Stephen will be invitied over. How many more days Carrie????

Robin that is one of Stephen's pick is Mayport Florida. If he gets that one he will be doing is job from a chopper.
