Carla and I are originally from Mississippi (at least for the most part, I was a Navy brat and lived in VA Beach until I was 13). We got married in 1979 while I was working in the Oil Field (did that for 10 years) then I joined the Navy. We lived in Groton, Ct. for 17 years, got our two amazing kids through High School there then moved to Hawaii (by the US Navy's invitation). So far it's been great and we wanted to try and share a little bit of it with our folks back home. That's about it. Please, Enjoy!
