What a totally cool place to live. Are you getting transferred out soon? I know the military is like Methodist preachers never anywhere long. Do wild orchids grow everywhere & anthuriums. I love both. Guess you do get tired of the humidity. You should live in Texas, it will kill you sometimes. Going to San Antonio tomorrow for a few days & it is really hot there. Gulf Coast at least has a constant breeze. Here in East Texas it can be dead still for days & then wind blow like crazy. Hurricane season is here so we don't know what to expect. Enjoy your time left as you may never get there again.
