The time is nearly upon us. We fly out Wednesday morning @ 630am to go see our son in the Air Force in San Antonio, Texas. It's going to be a 13hr ordeal just to get there with the drive time to the airports and all the layover time.
We're really excited to find out where he'll be going for his tech school training and where he'll be permantly stationed.
Our son actually wrote us a letter, one full page, front and back on whats happening in boot camp. This kid has NEVER handwritten a letter of any kind. So it was kind of special to get that letter.
We've never flown before so we're pretty excited about that part of the trip also. The only real concern will be taking all of our meds with us. Wait untill the airline inspectors see all the pills we take in a five day period. We're hoping it doesn't cause any problems.It's really kind of embarrassing to even see a 5 day supply of pills altogether.
At least the weather is suppose to be great while we're down there. No rain in the forecast for those five days.
We plan on doing as much sightseeing as possible while we are there. My brother, who lives in Ft. Worth, is driving down to have Thanksgiving dinner with us and go to the graduation events. I haven't seen him in awhile so it will be good to see him and my sister-in-law.
On a side note- how bout them Ohio State Buckeyes !! Beat the team up north in their own house. Go Buks !! It's the greatest rivalry in ALL of college football. Don't even think about leaving me a comment that it isn't. I'll just tell you up front that you are wrong -LOL.
Just wish us luck, that a schizophrenic wife and a bipolar husband(me) make it through airport security alright with all our crazy meds (btw- thats a good website- www.crazymeds.org)
Talk to you all later after the trip...

Hope you have a wonderful trip! I'm so happy that you get to see him!
I hope you 3 have a wonderful visit together. My neighbor's son was also in Texas for basic training (air force, I think) & when he saw he son at graduation, he cried. he said he'd never been so proud of him, that'd he'd become a man.
well, if i hear on the news 2 people in ohio (i'm assuming) were stopped at the airport & don't read a post in a week or so...just know i'll be thinking of you. :)
seriously though, be safe, have a great time & please write all about it!
stopped by to visit & read about your trip. hope you post soon. :)
