Welcome in.  There will be stuff coming up; just keep checking.  The desert stuff tapers off a bit as it gets hotter, but there's always something going on.  Gives you time to square your gear away!

Keep an eye out for one of Mitch's famous 100+degree mod days.  Bring otter pops.
I like sammiches.  And bacon.  Sammiches with bacon.  And chips.  Lots of chips.

The last one was the best.  I got to watch Bobby spend 2 hours talking himself into cutting a hole into his fender and we put the first ever 2nd Gen snorkle on Frank's rig. ;D

Pay no attention to the picture in the background.  It's not really there.

I'd rather be happy than right any day.

well the offer was accepted, now we wait for everyone to make their money. why does buying a home have to be so hard? when you buy a doughnut you see it costs 50 cent and you pay 50 cent... you do not need to bring pen and ppaper into it. so a house costs 250k? find a lender that will give you 250k and give it to the seller... why must it take 45+ days? well whatever, hopefully everything will go well and i will own my own 4.7 acre rock crawling course... i mean first home within a week? :)

hey boats, what unit are you with? i have been out here 4 times already... twice for school and twice for cax, 'er mojave viper it is now. i have been at lejeune for a little over 7 years though i just spent the last 14 months in iraq (guess ya know how that goes) for 6 of those 7 years i was the only one for miles that had anything more than after market tires on their rigs. then, weeks before i left i see 2 bl'd x's on base? must have liked the way mine looked lol. in fact, now that i think about it, i have never seen another local club or xoc sticker? ever! good to know there is at least one not only close by but on the same base!

look forward to meeting any and all of you.

Slanty I am a Corpsman currently at the hospital. I will PCS to 3rd CEB in July. I was in Lejeune for six years. I got here in 2005. Been out with the group a few times when I had my black X but while I was training it got stolen from my dads house in LA. I want to break my new X in but have not been able to. Looking forward to meeting you. I do know how deployments work but hey some one has to do them right lol. PM me if you need anything.

Doug
