I was stationed at Keesler from July 1974 to September 1977 at the Keesler Medical Center. I recently visited there in June of 2017 and the base has been dramatically reduced in population and very few of the buildings that were there when I was stationed there are remaining.

I don’t know why it effects me that way, but I get not a wink of sleep. But...tomorrow is going to be horrible, so I’m going to bed.

Rest well when you get there.

I certainly hope you’re getting an uninterrupted sleep tonight, and that tomorrow won’t turn out quite as bad as you expect. But it’s Tues. on a pay week so ........

GOOD LUCK!!!

Ah yes Keesler AFB. Went to Air Traffic Control School there in 1980. Had a GREAT time there with my Hobie Cat, that I wasn’t suppose to have there, and my 3/4 ton Chevy van. My fellow students and I would pile in and go to Destin/Fort Walton Beach for the weekends.

I woke up too early!
I couldn't even force more sleep!
So I got up before 9am. :O
I know....most people do. LOL!
But...but...I'm retired!
This stuff isn't supposed to happen!
I'll bet I'll be ready for that nap later. :)
It's a pretty morning.
Supposed to get up to 90 today.
Then cool off overnight.
The roller coaster!
Y'all have a Terrific Tuesday!
Tonight is Quiz Night! Yay!
((((hugs))))

My daughter went through KAFB for weather forecasting after graduating from Penn State and OTS at Maxwell. She’s a Weather Officer, starting work on a masters in atmospheric dynamics this fall. She helps her enlisted weather ops personnel get their degrees so they can go to OTS at Maxwell. She tutors them in math and science. Just had her 5th airman pin on 2LT.
