Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Sing hey! for the bath at close of day
That washes the weary mud away!
A loon is he that will not sing:
O! Water Hot is anoble thing!
O! Sweet is the sound of falling rain.
and the brook that leaps from hill to plain;
but better than rain or rippling streams
is Water Hot that smokes and steams.
O! Water cold we may pour at need
down a thirsty throat and be glad indeed;
but better is Beer, if drink we lack,
and Water Hot poured down the back.
O! Water is fair that leaps on high
in a fountain white beneath the sky;
but never did fountain sound so sweet
as splashing Hot Water with my feet!

yer makin’ me homesick...
Good idea... there are fine motels in Rolla and Lebanon, about 25 miles either direction from post...
BTW, it’s a violation of Federal Law to transport a civilian firearm on to Post... unless you register it with PMO at the gate, and it must be unloaded at all times and in a case while on Post...
I think Talon knows these things but I sure don’t... thanks...
aahhhhh... the musky odor of a well-used motel room...
yeah, he pro’ly does, but it’s easy to forget...
like the time when I tried tuh go in a certain National Monument while packin’... glad the security had a sense of humor and a healthy respect fer jarheads...
Sorta reminds me of the time we were visiting the White House. Security kept checkin’ Papa and having something show up. Pulled him out of the line with the want, etc.
About 10 minutes later, he said (with a grin no less) “did I tell you about my pacemaker?”
Fortunately, it was pre-9/11.
Might not be too long either. I'm fixin' to put in an order for a few meat chickens and a few layers at Cackle. They won't ship just a few, so we'll have to come get 'em!
woohoo!! hope tuh see yuh!
BTW, we have good friends that own Historic Route 66 Inn:
It won’t hurt our feelings if you stay at Munger Moss tho’...
Oh without a doubt...you’ll see us if you’re not out of town or something! Probably end up going to church with you again too...we liked your church.
Maybe we’ll stay at both places...Joshua just saw a picture of the Munger Moss in a book and I told him it was in Lebanon and next time we visited we’d stay there.
He’s not married to the idea though. Heh heh...
Speaking of activated...how long do you reckon the site will stay up this time?
I feel fer JohnRob...wonder what’s going on.
Dang, that was fast...just came across my old van on Craigslist, being sold by one of the local very-used-car dealerships. *snif*
Apparently it now comes with power widows, though. Inneresting enhancement.
it has evolved...

I’m just wondering what exactly power widows might do for ya, you know?
Do they keep the inside nice and clean? Nag you if you drive recklessly? Bake?
