ReplyDeleteI love how you included all the military bases! Made me want to re-up!Chevettes? My family used to have a Chevette, I loved that gas saving car! You have great taste in music! Lady Antebellum is an awesome group! I find it interesting how the group came up with the name, when there is only one lady in the group! Barry manilow is my Mom's all-time favorite singer!
