Rota Naval Station
We’ve known for a bit that our car was in Europe; first Germany and then here in Spain, but down at the import lot at Rota Naval base. It took a while to get all the paperwork in order to be ready for picking it up, and we decided to drive down our cheapo Volvo together […]

Today is the big day – it’s actually Thanksgiving after two weeks of parties and feasts around town we now get our last taste of turkey. Bryan’s squadron, the Assam Draggins, hosts a big meal for all the jet maintainers… With the pilots and families supplying the feast. It’s quite big, a couple hundred folks, […]
