Life with Larry has taken me to Ramstein and Spangdahelm Air Force Base in Germany.  Larry spent four years in the Marines where our first daughter Deborah was born---cost was $7.50.  He then enlisted in the Navy reserves for 18 years and now we are reaping the benefits.  We drove to Scott Air Force base where our adventure began.  From there we flew to St. Andrews base in Washington, D.C. and then off to Germany.  Being friendly and chatty, we met many other retired military people.  We hooked up with Charlotte and Jack Lyons and have been traveling from base to base in a rented car with Mandy our friendly but persistent GPS system.   Tomorrow we leave for Edleweiss Lodge near Munich for a couple days and then to Aviano Italy where we will attempt to fly back to the US. 

Life with Larry requires flexibility.  Flying this way is space available which means we could end up in Turkey.  We have flown in a refueling tanker and a med-a-vac jet.  It's all about the mystery and adventure and when you're over 60 years old--why not??
