Today's Field Trip: Military Families Voice of Victory
If you have a suggestion for a Field Trip - maybe a place where YOU have been stationed and would like to re-visit - PLEASE Freepmail it to starcmc!! Thanks!
Please remember: the Canteen is a place to honor and entertain our troops. As such we attempt to keep it MOSTLY apolitical. Thanks for playing and have a nice day! LOL!!!

Would you believe I didn't hear from them tonight? That means they are really into whatever it is that they're doing!
My money is on shopping during the day, cooking a big Italian dinner for this evening, then cleanup, and playing with the baby. Hmmph...at 2, she's not really a baby anymore, but then again...
Then pack everything up for an early departure. They're driving in from Tyler and have a 10:30 flight from DFW.
I was just telling someone else that I'm too addicted to stay off-line all that long. And Essie was right, I just moved the wireless network modem and router into another room and set up the computer temporarily on the dining room table. It has to move again, but not far.
Woo-Hoo!! New carpet tomorrow, and Nana's coming home!

Ahhh--she's been at it again! That is just beautiful, ES! And thank you so much for the welcome for David. If he doesn't read this thread like I e-mailed him to do, I'm gonna have to get that rascal! I have bookmarked it just in case so he can see it when he is here Christmas...which is the soonest we'll see him.

Do all the bottles fit in the box yet? What bottles?
Seriously, though, no...I moved the bottles back into the pantry after painting and used the box for something else.
Pretty sure that neither of you is drinker...in trying to get rid of the bottles, I've discoverd a Dew-Garita...not bad.

You know, you're right! I will probably just have to have one "accidentally" show up one day. It has happened before and hubby fell in love with them, but to hear him talk, he never wants another one. We'll just see about that! LOL!

"Were you there to interview someone when they arrived at Camp Casey?"
No I was there to cover the show. My soundbites will be from what they said on stage.
"Were you back stage for the show?"
C'mon...this is me....I had all access! :D
"When will your report air?"
Should be in the next couple of days
