Milspouse Friday Fill-in #42

1. Do you think civilians, in general, understand the meaning of Memorial Day?
   Yes.  Most people I know have a relative that has served some time in the military, and I think they understand why we celebrate.  Maybe people lose sight of the reason why, but I'm sure if you asked a civilian what Memorial Day is, they could come up with a decent answer.
   
2. What are your plans for the Memorial Day Weekend?
   Don't know yet.  It's getting close to the big move, so we are trying to not spend too much money.  I think we're going to bring the kayak to a local lake, but I don't know what we'll do the rest of the weekend.
   
3. What skill/talent do you wish you had? submitted by The 3 Turners
   Playing the guitar.  I know!  It's sad.  I can play every other instrument (no, really, I can) except guitar.  It's my bane.  I even have a guitar on hand.  Someday I'll take lessons.
   
4. Which came first: the chicken or the egg? submitted by I Married Into The Army
   If you look at it religiously, I'd say the chicken.  Adam and Eve were created first, so it makes sense to think the chicken would have been, too.  However, Eve came equipped with eggs.... Hm, maybe both at the same time??  If you look at it from a Darwinian standpoint, I have no idea.
   
   
5. What is the best thing about your post (base)? The worst? submitted by Randomly, Robyn
   I love how pretty the buildings are.  It really is a gorgeous campus.  But I was seriously spoiled in Hawaii with the huge exchange and commissary and gym with cheap-o childcare, so I'd say those amenities were disappointing here.
