I know of folks who live in gated communities. My immediate thought is a place set apart, a well cared for location, protected homes, secure families. Yes, I guess that is a military installation description! It is a wonderful way to live, however it can be confining. Life can get stagnant when it is all there at a short drive's distance: work, school, commissary and Exchange. GET OUT! We are revisiting a PCS from the past: Charleston Air Force Base, SC. Downtown Charleston is history, heritage and fun.
You can do it! Drive toward that gate and adventure into town! MWR has a gazillion ideas for you to use. Remember. People actually travel to your new PCS for vacations, shopping and adventure... and lucky you! You get to live there.
We left that life style, as we are retired from active duty. However, given any chance we wing it to military functions, installations, award ceremonies that flood us with memories, and cheer the heart! Going back, adding the spices of memories, photographs with younger faces, different neighbors, but always smiling with the new spirit of here and now.
