Default Ft. Sill, OK - anyone there?

The Army changed the orders and doesn't send us to Ft. Campbell KY/TN.
They send us to <span style="font-weight: bold">Ft. Sill, OK </span>instead.

Does anyone live there?

Thanks' fellas [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]

Hey Jochen - sounds like the Army is changing their minds - how original!

I don't know that area - sorry.

Say &quot;hey&quot; to your honey for me.

Hey Sam,

yes they changed their mind. But we have to deal with it.

The good news, Phoenix AZ is only a 15 hours drive now [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

Jess said &quot;thanks&quot; and &quot;hey too&quot; [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]

Oh man... what a time here in SW Oklahoma. So far we had - and still have - scorpions, spiders, t-storms and earthquakes. Only things missing are snakes and tornados...

Wife finally goes on a &quot;business trip&quot; and my job situation is not really better. Hope it will chance since I take classes with a distance learning school...

I also think about to sell some guns as well as the Ram, don't really need 2 cars for myself...

My mother grew up in Lawton. She met my dad at Ft. Sill right after WWII. I live in OKC. My youngest son did his basic training at Ft. Sill in 2001. Yeah, great timing; he got out of basic right before 9-11.

Still missing snakes and tornados, huh? There should be plenty of rattlesnakes. You just aren't looking in the right places. You didn't complain of the triple digit temps, so you <span style="font-weight: bold">must</span> be from the desert.

Don't worry, if you are still here in the spring, you WILL experience tornado season. Sometimes we get them in the fall, but mostly in May. BTW, you won't escape tornados by going to Wichita Falls. They had huge tornados rip through there in the mid sixties and again in the late 70's.

Good luck on the job search.

Well Lynn, I didn't mean I want to see tornados and snakes... I just meant this is stuff I didn't see yet.

We will move on post if the time/housing is right. Wichita Falls is with 60mls one way still too far for a job. Guess I have to stick around Lawton...

I don't complain abt. the triple digit temps because I like heat and hate cold [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img]
When we are done here we will move to the Phoenix, AZ area... yes... desert... awesome.
