 CS> That ok.  I had fun on my one fishing trip but dont really want to
 CS> repeat it. Once was enough for me ;-)

RH> It was more for Don's enjoyment I presume.  Steve's dad used to do a l
RH> of hunting and fishing; of the 3 boys, Steve is the only one that neve
RH> was that interested in it then or now.

I'd like to go camping though.  I am not sure if Don would like that but he
wouldnt mind at least the camper type.  We arent all that outdoorsie I guess.

 CS> paperwork vice wait another month cycle).

RH> Hopefully you'll get what you want.  This place was never even close t
RH> our radar screen. One big plus tho is that it's East Coast; with both
RH> sets of parents getting older, it'll be easy to get to them should we
RH> have the need to.

Well, for us the top pick is Stuttgart Germany, next is the 2 sites in England,
then the Singapore billet.  Problem is all of those are E7 billets and I'm E8.
We are asking though.  Might be a bit before we have an answer.  I dont have
to put in my papers til Feb.

Grin, the rest of the folks here probably think we are nutz.  I bet you can
understand though.  Life is too short to waste it and if i can live 3 years in
Europe, I'll take it.  If they want me to move stateside, they have to make it
Norfolk.


 CS> I'm used to bigger even if it is in my 'dining room' just now.  If

RH> Ours was in the dining "room" in AZ, on the lanai in HI. I'd like a 10
RH> one again but Steve doesn't.

 CS> when we get back the one in our house is still alive, we will just
 CS> store this one next to it probably, but might use this one and store
 CS> the older bigger unit.  19cubic feet and 25cubic feet respectively I

RH> We used to have an 18' one but it was in the I-95 roll over.  It
RH> survived; the lid was dented a bit but we knew we wouldn't be able to
RH> take it to the first couple of places we were with the Army (AIT
RH> schools, Fort Hood for 2 years, then German) so we sold it to my young
RH> brother.  Last we knew, it was still going strong. Bought to 10' one i
RH> AZ but left it in HI with a family that needed more cold storage room
RH> than just a fridge & couldn't afford to buy a freezer.  We may look do
RH> at the Fort Stewart PX this week end.

Well if in doubt, hold up on getting another?  If i get retired, I'll have a
spare.  I can measure it then if you can hold off, and see if you can fit it
someplace.  I was afterall, just looking to keep it unplugged as a backup.

If I recall right, its about 6ft long, 3 wide, and 4 tall?  Might be a little
longer and a little shorter. I seem to recall 25cubic feet inside?  Electrical
cost was about 1.50$ a month or a bit less.  Saved much more than that on food
bills by having it.
