Hey, Yellow Rose of Texas.....

[KC Burke]

Hello to my first FR buddy.

Anyone that wants to say hello to Rose, please join in.

Anyway, Rose, I know it is seldom you can post so I thought I would gather some chit-chat for you.

I'm off on a big adventure tomorrow. My youngest son graduates from Army Basic Training in two days time and I plan to travel across country to see him do it in the wilds of Fort Jackson.

I hope you know that your FRiends think about you and keep you in our prayers. We also think about your feisty attitude and how you would be just the one to keep Cash-n-keery on the ropes right now....we know its tough, so we are trying to do it for you.

Now lets see who else is still up

[KC Burke]

what's kickin on the left coast and elsewhere kids

[KC Burke]

I guess if I am going to rattle your cage, I better Ping you, LOL.

Some of Rose's long-time FR friends are on the ATRW thread (the former USA vs the unmentionable one) so here's a ping to the gang.

Rose ~~~ you are always in our thoughts and we cherish those times when you're up to saying howdy. *hugs* and prayers!

[kayak]

KC ~~~ May God bless your son! Please tell him how much FReepers support what he is doing and how much we appreciate his service to our country!

Prayers for him and all your family.

For both of you, prayers for your safety and Freeper hugs.

For the son, please tell him thanks and give him a big Granny hug.

Be safe and well, all of you.

Prayers for your son KC.

Hi Yellow Rose. Sure miss your posting. Hope everything is going good for you.

[MinuteGal]

You may talk about your Clementine
And sing of Rosalee
But the Yellow Rose of Texas
Is the only gal for me.

Hi, Rosie!

Hi Rose!! How are you?

Come visit us on the ATRW thread! We miss you!

[MozartLover]

Have fun at your son's graduation. We went to our son's graduation in the wilds of Fort Leonard Wood last January.:)

LOVE, HUGS AND BEST WISHES WITH OUR PRAYERS!

[KC Burke]

Thanks all of you guys. Rose often reads threads in general, but it takes some complex rearranging for her to post. So, we can "holler" at her and assume she replies with her always great common sense.

That keeps her up to date on what is happening with us and the world in general.

I have a great faith in our nation's growing understanding of the right path. I believe we will see that benefit in just a few weeks.

[KC Burke]

Thanks, Kassie. Sometime I will tell the story of his past year. But I want to get it straight from him face-to-face before I do.

Rose has that old indomitable attitude. Its just her mobility that won't cooperate.

[KC Burke]

Thanks for the ping, kid.

I pingeded yesterday's tread late last night and your blanket list may make for better coverage.

By the way, I'm starting the rumor that the thing under Bush's coat-back was the start of vestigal wings.

[Miss Marple]

Hi, Rose! I miss your comments, but I am glad you can still keep up with us!

Take care of yourself, and post when you can!

[MinuteGal]

KC, you're a prince for thinking of Rose the way you do. You have my profoundest respect.

Oh, my care is nothing compared to her and Towanda in the days of yore. She plucked my interest in FR off of a chat room thread back when I was only a lurker and coddled me through the baby-swteps to make me a registered poster.

She was also the first one to tell me the honest and true appraisal that I need a good editor to follow me around, LOL. There is no substitute for honest friends.

Rose has that true FR spirit and its is those pioneers that gave this forum is iron-fist in a velvet glove fellowship culture that has allowed it to be a success. That culture, as much as Jim's guidance and inspiration, is the true secret to our success.

Oh, my care is nothing compared to her and Towanda in the days of yore.

[MinuteGal]

Well stated.
