The first time I came to the Monterey Peninsula was my honeymoon. The second time I came, it was to try and get my husband out of the Army on a hardship discharge. It was quite a process, but better than Viet Nam. I moved up here for months while I jumped through all the hoops and got all the required documentation. Last week I drove through some of the old Fort Ord and took these photos.

That was a long time ago! Any news on the Gaviota fire?
Current Aircraft on the fire, AA430, Copter 3, VCFD Copter 5, the Fire is 100 Acres, 20% Containment no smoke is showing on the cams.
with so many homeless/houseless persons drifting these days, allowing Ft.Ord to rot is a travesty. I was around when it closed, and later, and I well remember all the red tape and barriers (streets not wide enough for conventional fire engines, etc.) ...still, it's a travesty. So sad.
How sad... When I was there it was a vibrant, active base. So much could be done with that primo piece of real estate!!
Sell the wood to interior decorators and restore the wild?
Bet that brought back some wild memories.... all part of the experience and the lessons we learn along the way.
