Cute kitties, jaycee. Good to 'see' you!

I'm not a fan of traditional pumpkin pie but the pumpkin custard and the non-baked are heavenly!

I assume that is a pumpkin pie but reminds me of a Dutch Apple......yum!

Hope all is well with you!

GOOD MILITARY MONDAY TO AMY’S PLACE!




The Soldier’s Code

1) I am an American fighting man. I serve in the forces which guard my country and our way of life. I am prepared to give my life in their defense.

2) I will never surrender of my own free will. If in command, I will never surrender my men while they still have the means to resist.

3) If I am captured, I will continue to resist by all means available. I will make every effort to escape and aid others to escape. I will accept neither parole nor special favors from the enemy.

4) If I become a prisoner of war, I will keep faith with my fellow prisoners. I will give no information or take part in any action which might be harmful to my comrades. If I am senior, I will take command. If not, I will obey the lawful orders of those appointed over me, and will back them up in every way.

5) When questioned, should I become a prisoner of war, I am bound to give only name, rank, service number, and date of birth. I will evade answering further questions to the utmost of my ability. I will make no oral or written statements disloyal to my country and its allies, or harmful to their cause.

6) I will never forget that I am an American fighting man, responsible for my actions, and dedicated to the principles which made my country free. I will trust in my God and in the United States of America.

President Dwight D. Eisenhower, August, 1955.





Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Hey, DD!

Hope things are going well!

Hi, Luv! I HEARD that you were getting some flooding rain, and hope you didn’t get any damage.

I was there in the ‘68 flood, and then it was 4.75”. I had about four inches in my house! It was a MESS!

Sweet kitty/pumpkin graphic! Did you ever get that kitten you wanted?

HAPPY OCTOBER!!

Hey, Yorkie!! We got nearly 6 inches, but it was a very slow soaking rain and didn’t damage anything around here. There were some flooded streets on Friday, and Midland closed their schools because of it but we didn’t.

The grass looks amazing now! Hubby’s not gonna like having to mow. LOL!

I never did get a kitten. I have a friend who has some new orange ones, though, so maybe when I get back from the trip for the shoot in Corpus. :)

Great to see you, TCP.
Hope you had a fun day.

I have been away most of the past two months ... I really feel like a stranger. :)

Enjoy Fall.

Good evening, Teenie.

It is so good to be here for awhile.
I miss my friends.

Are we really going to get some cooler weather by next week-end?
Seems they keep promising and then we get another 100+ day.
I am looking forward to some nice fall weather!

Hope all is well with you and yours.
