WELCOME TO THE

(where our troops, allies
and their families can refresh themselves)

Good morning, Everyone.

Good morning to our

Military, our Allies, and their families.

Thank you, Ma, for preparing the Canteen
for today's activities
Another quick visit.
So far, so good on crossing the fiscal year.
Today will be setting up the FY16 stuff.

My youngest (37) son is getting married tomorrow
and we're having a BBQ wedding reception on Saturday...
and of course, the rain we've been praying for has arrived; bad timing!

Come in, sit down.
Grab a cup of joe or tasty tea.
Mingle a bit, chat with the troops
or family member.
There's always plenty of conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS in the FR Canteen.

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.

Morning Beachie!

Well, a busy weekend in store for you, congratulations to your son!

What's the back-up plan if the rains come tomorrow?

Too bad that your former replacement skedaddled, it really complicates your retirement plans, doesn't it?

I'm working today and then off until Monday and like I mentioned, I'm going to visit daughter tomorrow in Seattle.

Coffee time, see you later.

Good morning Pro ((HUGS))

No backup plan; party is on UNLESS the hurrycane ramps up in categories. Right now, landfall is unknown. NOAA show not until Tuesday, so who knows.

I won’t be around tomorrow.
Have a great visit with daughter-girl
