Places we have lived

As newly weds and after much work at fixing up our very first little home in the country Joey and I decided it best to move into town because of the bad winters and the snow making it difficult to drive back and forth into town everyday....
So after maybe six months or more at our little home we moved to another house in Vincennes which we thought would be our home for along time to come but then Joey decided after being there for maybe six months it would be better if he joined the Navy and quit working at a gas station. He wanted to pick what to join and wanted the navy and if waited they could draft him and he wanted to be sure he got into the navy. The military would pay for his education and he would get a license in electronics and so thats what he did and it worked out to be a very good living for us for many yrs. and so here are some of the places we lived up to now:

 Bruceville, Ind. Our first home as young married couple /maybe six months or less here because it was too hard to drive into town in winter with snow and all.
Vincennes on upper 11th st.   Here until dad decided to join the military and stop working at the filling station ....was a good decision cause he got his education in electronics there in the navy
 Millington , Tenn./ Joined Joey to live outside of base in Navy Housing
Brunswick, Georgia for---? short time there
 Eau Gallie, Fl.  Dad worked at Cape Kennedy, got layed off and this guy from church said come to Sanford and I will get you on at Repco
Sanford Fl. ...6yrs. we lived in Sanford while dad started his job at Repco then moved to Orlando
Orlando, Fl.  on Elon Dr. ....near 30 yrs. we lived there and he continued working at Repco as a  customer service advicer. they sold radio's all over the country and then dad started traveling everywhere. The kids grew up on Elon and then after gone dad and I moved away from Pine Hills  because it was beginning to be a bad area.
