Tracking my son on his way to...

Panzer Kaserne, near Stuttgart, Germany for his sons, my grandson's football game. He just exited the Chunnel... two day drive from his home in England.

That's one hell of a distance!

Makes me envious... I was stationed in Heidelberg, (now closed). Rambeau knows it well. I drove down to Stuttgart often during the two years I lived in Germany... had a few friends stationed there. What I remember most were the stops along the way in the Black Forest for a 'cool one' and the bars that must have taken 100 carpenters 20 years to carve.

You ain't lived until you've had a weisswurst and a lager in the Black Forest. Knowing my son and his penchant for German sausage and beer he may not make it to the game.
