Actually Emma was held over in Washington overnight. They cancelled the flight because of the storms down that way. They finally got deplaned and into a hotel about midnight. Hopefully today will be better. Now I understand why the begin the trip to Basic so far ahead. She doesn't actually begin Basic training until Aug 1st.
She called and told me that she's on the bus headed for the base. She's going to call me (probably one last time) and let me know if her phone got locked up yet. Then I'll call and have the service temporarily suspended for a undetermined time.

Well... sounds like she's well on her way. I always thought the military would be fun. I mean... the physical aspect of it. I'd have loved obstacle courses and stuff like that when I was a younger person. I almost joined... but they were soooooo bossy before I joined... I could just see trouble coming if I actually did join. So, I didn't. Bummed the hell outta my recruiter, cuz I had scored in the top 2% in the nation on the ASVAB test.
I hope she likes it in the service! If she can make it past basics, I'm sure she will be fine!
Hugs
