Good evening, darkangel.....a very thought provoking question.

Sadly, there will always be those who want what is not theirs, what is the fruit of other’s labor, and have no compunction, nor conscience, about just taking it.

Did you warm up any?

Unfortunately true and the main reason why we face the problems we do now.

Howdy, Kathy! No...it got colder and colder all day and it’s now 31, down from the mid-40s this morning.

Supposed to get down in the mid-20s. I know, after seeing Fairbanks down to -40, and MN in the minuses, this might make you smile, but it was WARM here yesterday! LOL!

We finally made it into the mid 20s....and maybe for a week.

The perfect temperature for winter!!

Stay warm out there! Drive carefully if you must be out.

Oh, no problem with driving. It’s clear and very, very dry! :)

Well, except for the fact that we have too much traffic for our roads, that is. LOL!

Thank you for doing your part to help keep all of us free and safe.

Thanks, unique, for the pastries.

Good morning to everyone at the Canteen. It's even freezing 32º here this morning. I still have some post Christmas cleaning to finish.

TO THE

Good morning, Everyone. Good morning to our

AWESOME

Military, our Allies, and their families.

Thank you, Star, for preparing
the Canteen for today’s activities.
The Christmas truce story never fails to inspire.
It gives us hope in our fellow man.

Good morning all.
It's Monday; Christmas is gone, and the New Year only days away.

Hope you all have enjoyed the holiday season
and are looking forward to a better New Year.

I've had a fairly relaxing last couple of days.
Got my decorations down; just need to put them away.
Can't wait to get my living room back in order!
Only one more week left in my vacation,
and still have things to get done.

Time for me to make my rounds.
Then, off to do more chores.
But, you stay right where you are.
Chat up the military,
a family member, or
a visitor to the Canteen.

We are always

So, come on in and sit for a while.
There's always plenty of coffee, tea,
pancakes, conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS

REMEMBER THEM

DEFENDERS OF FREEDOM

FR CANTEEN MISSION STATEMENT

Showing support and boosting the morale
of our military and our allied military
and the family members of the above.
Honoring those who have served before.

Good morning dear ((HUGS))

I’m not happy to hear that you are chilly in Texas. That means we’re not likely to have warmer weather heading our way.

Did you have a nice Christmas?

Yes, we had a nice and quiet Christmas. We cut back on the number of gifts this year, so daughter and SIL didn’t have to cram so much into their car. A couple of them were expensive, but something she really wanted.
