Jim, don't think we will need to cut a hole for the boat this year. Ice gear is put away for the season still in the original packaging. Walleye are starting to hit at the spillway at Missisinewa resivore so may end up there Monday. Steve, I have heard of Nappanee, but never been there. We live west of Marion outside of Converse. IWU is a really good school. A few of our kids friends from Ohio are currently going there.

Tom, not too far from us, just north of you in Nappanee. Our daughter graduated from Indiana Weslyan there in Marion.

Tom, I don't go ice fishing at all. It takes too long to cut the hole for the boat.

Sorry Tim I meant to say Steve seeing his son during the holidays, and sorry your son wasn't able to make it home. I only spet one Christmas underway while I was in and it wasn't the same as being home.

Thanks for the warm welcome, it's the only thing warm in Indiana at the moment.Hopin' the cold freezes the lakes as I recieved some ice fishing gear for Christmas and have never been ice fishing. So far Indiana has treated us good. I was transfered to Marion with my job, and my wife was able to find a job. Glad you were able to see your son this holiday season Tim. Our son was away for the second Christmas in 3 yrs. We haven't seen him since Christmas 2010, but he is supposed to come home in July, and is due to transfer out of Guam this December. He is currently assigned to one of the busyest dive lockers in the Navy, and is leaving for Singapore and then Bahrain for a while. Thank goodness for Skype. We are also hoping for an east coast assignment when he reups in a couple months, but he is hoping for Rota, Spain or somewhere where the water is warm.

Tom, welcome aboard. It is a cold day in NE (Ft. Wayne) INdiana today! My son is underway on USS Momsen, just left Kuala Lumpur on his way to N. Africa/Arabian Sea (7th Fleet AOR) with the Lincoln Carrier Group. This is his second Christmas on deployment....and maybe the last! His next assignment will be land based...hopefully on the East Coast.

Tom, as another transplanted Buckeye welcome aboard. Indiana is a good place. My son made it back from Afghanistan right after the holidays so we were blessed in many ways. Shipping him back to his stateside battalion tomorrow.

So, Tom, are you interested in starting a packing party?  You could even whip one up for the Super Bowl--only takes a couple of people with a heart to pack.  We only (ha ha) have a group of 2700 we are doing this month through Molly's Adopt a Sailor.  Look us up on facebook or at www.mollysadoptasailor.com   Your Butler fan, Carol

Welcome to Indiana Tom! We're not as active as we'd like to be. We had a great time at our last packing party. I must say that it was organized by a Navy Mom who is also on here once in a while. I do look forward to having another one.
