Visit Us Before We Move; Southwest Airlines"

When will we leave Fort Campbell, Kentucky? Charlie is on a travelling team modifying six aircraft here. The team has to do it correctly or people will die, so time is not a consideration. His assignment here will last as long as it takes for the team to do the job the best possible safest way. The current estimate is that the team will be finished sometime between October, 2009 and December, 2009. Then the team moves on to modify another group of aircraft in Pennslyvania.
Last night we saw an unusual and good movie from Netflix, "A Man Called Horse". It is timeless and may be just as relevant one hundred years from now as when it was made.
Anyone who wants to visit us, we have a sofa-bed in our small living room. The nearest commercial passenger airport is Nashville Metropolitan Airport (IATA code is BNA) at 1 Terminal Drive, Nashville, TN 37214, phones are (615) 275-0147, -1675, and it is 73.91 miles southeast.
For an airline, I would choose SWA - Southwest - www.southwest.com and click on "Travel Tools" which gives a calendar displaying fares on each day, and one can choose the lowest fares which are called "wanna get away". Today I see some one-way $99 fares starting August 19, 2009.
One could use the Jarmon or Clarksville Airport Shuttle for ground transportation to Hopkinsville. See www.flynashville.com/Ground_trans/bus.aspx for phone numbers of about eight shuttle companies to make appointments and get estimates.
Our apartment is in a cove a few feet off the main drag which is about 2500 block of Fort Campbell Boulevard. See you soon ?
