    Lowell-- saw your post to Luis...I'll got one back fromthe Middle east cruise and one currently there so I know all about that wonderful 6-8 month ordeal! You'll want to get ready to send plenty of care packages....go to the post office and get some flat rate boxes (the large size is perfect). you can pack tons of stuff in those and it's $11.95 flat rate to FPO addresses.....be sure to get some custom declaration forms as well as you'll need one for each box. Anything that helps remind them about home is good....Eric always wants good ol' Arizona hot picante sauce and CD's. I've also sent a lot of books and magazines that he can sahre with the guys in the shop (car, bike. etc.). One of our members, Paige, makes jerkey that she send all over the place and I'm sending tons of Girl Scout cookies next week.

    just some things to think about! And you'll want some of my labels I'm making for folks so check out my blog about the adhesive labels too! Paul

    If your Tiger cruise is like mine you'll meet at the USO at the Jacksonville airport. Oce at Mayport, if you've left early, you'll be outside for a number of hours....be prepared with sunscreen.............
