The installation is managed by Installation Management Command (IMCOM) and hosts the headquarters of the United States Army Tank Automotive Research, Development and Engineering Center (TARDEC) and the United States Army TACOM Life Cycle Management Command.

Whew! Makes me shiver thinking about having to go outside at all. Can’t be much fun for either of you but Penny does need to go out.

I get the feeling once Spring arrives, Penny’s going to drag you all over the place. LOL

LOW tonight is supposed to be 33 degrees with light rain.

We walked 1 mile and a half to the pond and another mile and a half back just a week ago. The pond was frozen anmd wind was coming all the way across it. Brrrrrr.

After that little excursion, Penny actually puts on the dog-brakes at about a half mile and demands we turn around.

[radu]

The weekend?
I’m just counting down until Friday. LOL

Howdy, LUV.

Great to hear your MIL is doing well.
I hope your son and his family manage to arrive at home tonight. That’s been quite an adventurous trip!

LOL! Don’t we all wish?!!

It’s felt a bit like spring here but we know we’re gonna get hit with cold soon. Be our luck it’ll stay cold well into April.

Oof! That’s too much walking in those temps. Add wind and uh-uh. At least you have your FUBO coat but still ...... *shiver*

[luvie]

Hope you can stay in and stay warm! Guess Charlie will eventually have to go out, though. Bet he’s quick about it! LOL! Have any snow yet?

[radu]

WOOHOO, ya got the 50, PRO!

As long as it’s taking to post anything tonight, we didn’t have a chance at it. LOL

[left that other site]

LOL...the FUBO Coat has so many coffee spills on it, from trying to drink and walk and control Penny at the same time. I will have to have it cleaned before I put away for the summer.

Maybe I need a new coat. The “inspiration” for the FUBO coat will be replaced this Friday. maybe i can get a MAGA coat somewhere?

When my DIL texted me, they were only 90 miles away and it was late afternoon. Sure they're to their apartment now and probably getting supper and/or getting settled in for the night. My son has been living there, so sure he has stuff in the fridge already.

On of her first views of the area they were headed for!

[luvie]

WooooHoooo! Brat-PRO did it again! LOL!

Darn birds’ nests keep me unfocused. :)

Gnight you
