A Few of FR's Finest
....Every Day
FR is a Treasure Trove of talented, compassionate, patriotic, wonderful people who gather every day to discuss the latest news and issues; salute and support our military and our leaders;  tell a few jokes;  learn a new word;  write poetry;  pray for those in need;  and congratulate those who are deserving. Thank you, Jim Robinson, for giving us the vehicle in which we can express ourselves.
Free Republic made its debut in September, 1996, and the forum was added in early 1997.   Over 100,000 people have registered for posting privileges on Free Republic, and the forum is read daily by tens of thousands of concerned citizens and patriots from all around the country and the world.






A Few of FR's Finest November 11, 2001

So many people have written me since my original Veteran's Day Tribute, asking how they, or a loved one, could be included in that tribute. Since I could no longer add the photos to the body of the thread, I had been including them in additional posts as I received enough to make another collage.
Still that didn't seem to be enough. I think there's never been a better nor more appropriate time to keep the faces of our own Veterans and Active Military in front of FReepers--every day! That's why I wanted to do yet another Daily Thread .....ABOUT FReepers .....and FOR FReepers. But not only about our Military FReepers; for all FReepers! Wouldn't it be nice to get to know a few of the other FReepers as well? That's why we've created a place for just that. This is a friendly room in JimRob's house where FReeper FRiends can gather every day and just say hello if that's all they want to do.
There's more of course. We sometimes feature different FReepers, with a little background information on who they are and what makes them who they are, along with a few photos you might not have seen on other threads; sometimes others write an essay for us to post as the feature for the day; sometimes our presentation is a human interest story found elsewhere that you might not have read; sometimes special holiday threads; but whatever the topic of the day, it is always with FR's Finest in mind and that is YOU!
If you would like to be featured, or would like to see someone else featured, please send me a private FR mail.
Every Monday we will post the photos of FR's Military Personnel that I have collected and put into groups; these will be available to view through a link the remainder of the week - every day just a click away. :)   If you would like to add a photo of yourself or a loved one in the military, past or present, please let me know; I will hold it until I have enough for a new group.
Thank you, and please have fun with us...every day! ~ Billie

Hey Calpernia. Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. I'm behind on my pings. Our trip was amazingly beautiful. We came home well rested and better attached to each other. We needed that quiet time as a family.

How are the kids?

Thanks sweetie. It is indeed appropriate. You know, the past week has been blessed. We had a friend who was taken to the hospital and she was dying. The family was all called in. Hubby and I were supporting a revival at a local church. That night everyone went to the altar and prayed for that woman. Almost to the minute she began to turn around and she is on the road to recovery. Will probably be taken out of intensive care tomorrow. Two young people were saved at the meeting also last week. Now we have another miracle. God is good.

Yes God is good and He is always faithful. The older I get the more I see Him. I love getting older for that reason (except for the round face part). LOL

Hi Spooks! My kids are great (tiring, imps, et al, but great)

I unfortunately never made it to the west end of NC. We lived on the east end when we were their. I'm jealous that you got to the mountains!

Did your house survive your photo memories party?

Evening to you Nan. Glad to hear good blessings are being answered!

Yes, but barely did my house survive. I STILL have some messes to organize, only to have it torn into again on December the 6th. I'm a glutton for punishment.
