Cool Made it to VA!
Well the wife and I (and the 3 three cats) have made it to the Hampton area. House will not be ready until 30 Jun, so the joy of it all is our household goods will have to be put in storage for about a week, then reloaded onto a truck and then delivered...fun times! Atleast the military moves everything...

We are staying in Yorktown at a hotel right now, been exploring the area...

I did see a Yellow Z06 with a black carbon fiber hood today...anyone on here?

Look forward to meeting some of you around the local area...

Welcome to the area!

There is a Mod Party July 10 for header installs and a C5 and a C4, great way to break the ice and meet some of the local yocals.

Glad you, wife and three cats all made it. My offer for a cold one is still good. Thanks for bringing all of that heat up with you.

Unfortunately yes, Florida was hot with terrible humidity...when we left it was 100 degrees with 100 percent humidity...good assignment but we were glad to head out!

You must be right around the corner from us in Kiln Creek. From your avatar, looks like you're Air Force? I retired out of HQ ACC at Langley, well, a long time ago. Welcome to the Peninsula!

You bet, Air Force...turned 20 years of service this past January, so now I have options

I will be taking command of one of the squadrons on 7 Jul.

The picture was taken at the AAC Museum at Eglin Air Force Base (my last duty station)...

We moved up from Orlando about 13 years ago and have been in the Tabb and Poquoson area since then.

Traffic East, West, North, and South pretty much sucks but other than that the area is pretty cool for motorheads

Traffic is definitely a culture shock from Destin/Fort Walton area, but atleast the V can stretch a little...

I am right off of Kiln Creek...gotta love it though, the last few nights punks have been breaking into vehicles and snatching/grabbing whatever they can get...looks like they are jumping the fence coming from across the golf course in the hotel parking lots.

Might have to have a recon mission with my NVGs and .45...sit and wait and then place the red dot right at center mass...that would get their attention...

Congratulations on your command! And yes, it's nice to have options.

Unfortunately this isn't uncommon around here. Hang in there, in a few days you won't need the NVG or .45.

Roger that,

It was funny, last night Tiff and I hit the pool late and then I stuck around to smoke a cigar...there were other hotel residents out late walking the parking lots, community watch...

Looking like we will move in on the 30th...
