Hello Kathy! The signs of winter quickly showing its ugly head in my area.
Fun thing though. Neighbor was outside on porch and got startled. A fox walked up right next to them, they were able to toss it a biscuit.

WELCOME TO THE

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 post and depart.
Today is my last day at work, so
it's going to be a busy one.
I'll see some of you tonight when I post.
my last day...my last day...my last day...my last day...
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.
