Thanks Dogs. I had to drive to Charleston AFB in a driving rain. I am just too old to leave my little island anymore. It's like having alzheimers. Nothing is familiar after 40+ years. You used to be able to see an AFB for miles in the dark. No more. No big search lights going, no exit signs to base, small terminal in the dark. It's like the blitz in London or something. Everything is dark and low profile. But I got my daughter there after a 2 week visit. My new grandson is such a good natured baby. Still don't have my photobucket working right and this computer sucks. Maybe I'll get things straightened out some day.
She took a leave and visited. Flying space available with her husband and an infant. What fun, eh? Bonnie has to be back at Ramstein by Wednesday. I hope she makes it. The flight from Charleston to Ramstein was full. No flights today or tomorrow. She may have caught that C-17 to Dover. Dover had some flights going to Germany. Busy birthday for me.
Well Grandpa, sounds like it's time to sit back and relax a little! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Haha, yeah. Bonnie is now at McGuire AFB and has a ride along with her dependents on a C-5 to Ramstein tonight. I guess it all worked out!

Glad the got on. Lots of times it is really hard to get to Europe, seems like everyone wants to go there! PLUS hopefully in Fred, she won't have to worry about comfort pallets. She should be up stairs on the third floor!

She caught that C-17 last night to Dover (just in time). Then a bunch of fellow airmen and soldiers got a shuttle bus from Dover to McGuire for the flight to Germany. Luck was with us last night, as we were an hour late getting there. Luckily her flight had been delayed.
