I'm flying into Philly on the 3rd. I'll be doing pre deployment training at McGuire AFB through the 21st. I'll have a rental.

Now, I probably won't be able to get off base much during the week if at all, but the two weekends I'm there should be fine.

Who's free?

Unless proven otherwise, I assume everyone in the Swamp lives in New Jersey.

Well, the proper name for the entire installation is Joint Base McGuire Dix Lakehurst.

So yes. Dix is in my future.

You need to coordinate your deployments/training with the summer youth soccer tournament season.

Not sure if they still do the race, but Dix used to have a great mud run. Fun obstacle and part of the race ran on the runway and through a hanger.

Giff's not in NJ, so that isn't going to entice anyone.

Speaking of which, after joking about Isbell and sportswriters for months/years, Spencer Hall is now completely hooked.

This weekend ended up being pretty busy for me, but according to FB Syb spent last night hanging out with his kids while his wife was arm candy for various members of the Jets at a party overlooking Rockefeller Plaza, so he's probably ready to find central Jersey's dirtiest juice bar and RAGE.

You wanted to meet up AFTER weapons turn in? That sounds like way less fun. Tonight isn't good, not sure what tomorrow will bring with snow expected.

We can meet up whenever this weekend. Just got done with turn in.

And yea, it may just be a snowball fight here on base. I'm just not feeling going into The City or Philly right now.
