Fort Huachuca






Our first tour at Fort Huachuca, Az we lived in Cloud Nine Trailer court. This was our first home - 103 Nelson Circle. David went to MIOAC, Airborne School and Counterintelligence School while here.












The house was small but nice.










111Grierson Ave, Fort Huachuca.









We had hundreds of hours of fun with Travis, Cockaynes, Browns, Ardes and Isaac and Robert. We loved Thanksgivings with the Cockaynes almost every year while we were here - 4 and a half years. David taught school, worked in DOES, and was the IG.

This is for Matt. They have refurbished all the old homes and they look great.














Furry Grandchildren










Taylor and Emileigh are so much fun. They really make us feel at home when we visit. The bike rides, the mall, the ballgames, and the orchards are all so fun when we are with them. Even the rides to the Fort are better with them along.
Three really nice women.

McQueen Grandchildren






























These are recent pictures of Megan, Isaac, Mallory and Eli. Each child has such a wonderful and expressive personality. They have a combined energy with enough wattage to light an entire neighborhood. We love riding bikes, hiking, playing games and going to church with them. Two girls, two boys, two blue eyed, two brown eyed and four lovely children.
