There are no FGTs here - but there are FORD vehicles!
 
Okay, Ed, I'll bite! What th' gallopin' clang ARE you doin' there!!!!!:lol Nuthin' there but an air base (kinda like Guam w/o all the Gooney Birds!).

'Gotta be work related, right?
 
Ed, somehow it doesn't surprise me --NO FGT's on the island.

My brother, the CPA, was on Diego for 4 years, as CFO for DCAA during the build-out of the base in late 80's early 90's.

It is a long ways from ANYWHERE!:usa

We've got one heck of a glass fishing float collection from there. Go walk the beaches, as there's a lot of interesting floatsum that winds up there.

Hope you enjoy the desert in the ocean.

Navy Reserve stuff

Hi Jeff, it was interseting being here for about a day and a half. Looking forward to getting back to cold and rainy Seattle. Ed
 
I would like to check out Joe Allens BBQ. It must be pretty darn good to make that signpost. :lol :cheers
 
The other side of the sign

I have actually eaten at the place in Pensacola.
