Congratulations!!!! Went back to the site this morning and was thrilled to see you listed as one of the 3 finalists! Can’t wait to hear final results. Good Luck.

The folks from RJC just called to say “Congrats” and line up some of the preliminary info....couldn’t get them to give me a hint as to where we finished though!
Thanks...I have to admit that I was happy to read here that you checked up on me!!!

[Kitty Mittens]

We're one of the three finalists!!!!!!!!

Congratulations!!

Well, there ya go :o)

[FlashBack]

Thanks for the 'Thanks and Congrats" but it's all you that deserve a
BIG THANKS from me....
One of the other finalists is a high school teacher and I'm thinking she probably had a large part of the whole school body vote for her, the other finalist races semi-professional. To be able to finish above the other racers, some with some very high-caliber equipment, was a surprise...we'll see where we shake out among the final three but I'd just like to say that the FReepers are #1 in my book!!!!!!!
And the e-mails I got from our Troops!!!! I don't know what to say................
I am truly and deeply honored.
I got the chance to speak with Debbie Lee at the Sept 11 rally (I'm waiting to get a copy of a certain picture from that rally..when I get it I will share it with you all here) and her son was the first Navy Seal to have sacrificed his life for our Freedoms in Afghanistan...I have her permission to add "In memory of Marc Alan Lee"to the back of our car for next season...although it is but one name I hope it will honor all of those who have given it all and inspire the rest of us (especially me) to do better in whatever we are doing and to never forget those who have given it their all for everyone.
God Bless All Of Our Heroes and God Bless all of you here on this board...this ole dog has learned alot the short few years I have been here.

I don't know if SSgt Jon posts here yet or not, I told him about this Pro-Troop, Pro-America site I hang out on called 'Freerepublic' so if you see this Jon, I hope you don't mind me sharing the correspondence..I just thought what you wrote should be seen by everyone:

I have to tell you that one of the biggest things for us is to be supported, we don't care if you support the war, or weather you support the president, just support us. I say thank you for this support, so often we are overlooked, or unapriciated. I really can't explain how much it means just to say thanks, or just to talk to us. I have missed the last four Halloweens, Thanksgivings, Christmas's, New Years, and Valentines day's. Some of those I can deal without, but I've also missed the last four of my wifes and my oldest son's birthdays. Honestly the biggest thing that we need or want is just to talk to people, I think it helps us stay connected. Anyhow, I'll quit rambling now, again I thank you for your support and keep it up, as small as it may seem, It really means a lot. SSgt Jon *****

Thank YOU SSgt Jon...and ALL THE TROOPS!!!!! God Bless!!!!

To SSgt Jon:

Thank you and all those around you, for your service and for our freedom.

May God Bless each and every one of you.

Thank you for posting that, FlashBack!

SSgt Jon, please know that you are NOT forgotten, nor are you unappreciated. The enemedia wants you to believe that you are, but there are many, many people who absolutely appreciate you.

We visited our friends church last Sunday morning. In their church service, they had a time of praying aloud. One prayer lifted was a prayer for those in the military serving far away from their family and friends. It happens every day, in places all over this country. Someone remembers and prays for you. Or thinks about how difficult a job you're doing and how proud we are to be Americans because of people like you. Keep fighting the good fight.

We got your six.

AWESOME!! It might make him smile to know that people really DO care over here!
