Aloha Night Owl and Lauren!

I remember Miramar when it was NAS Miramar but it's ok by me that the Marines have it now. Trusting the Marines won't allow any bad movies made there.

Thanks, Lauren!

Working dinner? Tough job but I'm sure you're up to it.

Good evening, Mayor...((HUGS))...thanks for today’s sustenance for body and soul.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Aloha, Hawaii....she hoped to be home by posting time. Didn’t happen. Talk about clock watching. LOL!!

Did I hear 4 days of sun? Looked like rain here earlier, but now the sun has come out.

Daylight: 6:03 AM - 9:54 PM

We love our Marines!

And thank you for your service to our country.

I was on the tarmac at Miramar when the first F-14 landed with the Secretary of the Navy in the RIO seat. Some years later, I moved to Mira Mesa (1983) to enjoy watching the Top Gun folks training. The air shows were always outstanding. When the F-14s left and the Marines arrived, we were "treated" to helicopters and FA-18 aircraft. When I finally sold the house in 2001, my son joined the Marines. His reserve unit operates off the east end of Miramar. He wrapped up his service in 2008. It's a fine base.

KiA, thank you very much for posting this. We had many good times while at El Toro. Good to see they have a great new home.

Grandson Peter is awesome, spoiled rotten, and do not blame me for that.

Peter has a sibling on the way......Mom says if it is a girl, name is Piper. Great sense of humor that (former) little girl. (I wonder where she got that from)

I don’t believe it but.....we shall see what happens.

Good evening, puppypusher. Hope all is well in your neck of the woods. Spring has finally made it here.

LOL!! Piper’s a very popular name. FWIW, I don’t think she can go wrong considering it...besides, it would go so well with her brother’s name!!

Don’t blame you for spoiling Peter? Well, okay - whatever. I just wish I could have a hand in spoiling my Piper. We don’t get up that way often enough.
