During my stay at the Navy Lodge, it became boring to sit in my room all the time, so I wandered about and made friends...imagine that. These gentlemen have been here for months as contractors for the government. They aren't allowed to get houses or cars, but they make the best of their time here. Once a week they have a cookout in the "courtyard" of the hotel. The furnishings are makeshift chairs and tables held together by zip ties, but their meals are fit for royalty. I was fortunate enough to be invited and I had a great time socializing and listening to the live music (thanks Zane). These men are super fun and know how to have a great time given the circumstances. It was sad to move out of the lodge knowing that I wouldn't be able to walk outside and hang out anymore.
