Welcome Aboard

About Us

My photo
I'm Cathy, a 67 year old retired Navy wife. Spent 24 years as a Navy wife until my husband retired after 27 years of service. We traveled all over from Washington D.C., to Puerto Rico, St. Croix, St. Maartin, Martinique, Japan and Korea. We re-located to this beautiful state of TN from Central FL. We live in the mountains on 5 acres with our 10 cats (5 indoor). I'm Chuck, the Other Half of the equation. I'm a 68 y/o sailor at heart. While in the Navy I was a Cryptologic Tech (Intel type). My most memorable tours of duty were in Submarines (Scorpion, Skipjack, Triton & Ray), as Senior Enlisted Advisor to the Deputy Director National Security Agency (RADM C.F. Clark), and my last tour as Operations Chief at NSGA Homestead, Fl during Hurricane Andrew. It was a good time to retire. We have been looking for this home since 1965 and thank the good Lord that we're finally here.

Winter's not over yet

Well - It's snowing again.  Within 2 hours we had over an inch of snow on the ground.  Right now there's about 3-4" and it's still coming down.  Supposed to get up to 5" before it's over.  It's a real heavy, wet snow too.  So we'll probably see trees and limbs down before it's all said and done.  I can see some of the limbs on the Hickory trees bowing under the weight.  Many of the smaller evergreens are gonna take it tough too.  Hopefully it won't be snowing much longer.

Winter has bypassed us this year and the reports now are talking about a moderate drought and restricting water deliveries to the farmers in the valley... So add a lack of water and the fuel prices and I think we're in for a summer of high produce prices along with everything else that will be higher because of the gasoline prices. Yesterday we both filled up our cars at $3.85 gallon.

Our daffodils are in full bloom right now, but I am jealous of your snow. Take care, love P.
