I'm doing well but am in and out of the Canteen. It seems that people choose the weekend to tell me about probs, send website updates, etc.

How are you today?

Thank you Colonel

BTW...WooHoo to you! You got the 1,100!

[El Gran Salseron]

Wow! Is that a recent pic, like from this latest snow y'all got?

[MS.BEHAVIN]

That was actually taken last March..
Right after a big storm (about 12 inches of snow)
We got 7 inches yesterday..
But the trees all all pretty like that today..

Simpy beautiful! No other way to say it. I have never seen that much snow up close and personal.

[MS.BEHAVIN]

Here's another shot of that storm..

Notice the snow is up to the bottom of the windows on the sunporch!

[TASMANIANRED]

My heart doesn't slow down nearly as quick as it once did.

I live right off a major artery. 1/4 mile to splat.

Lost is one thing but lost and probably hit by a car was way too much.

I laughed and cried when I saw her goofy face at the door.

Mail.

Does look peaceful.

Hello people!

[Old Sarge]

Greetings, FReepers, Troops,
and All the Ships at Sea!

Reporting LIVE! from the Fobbit Hole in the rich bottom lands of the Euphrates River Valley, it’s the continuing saga of Sarge's Most Excellent Adventure!

Well, as promised, the Sarge-Cam did the right things today, so here we go on one of Sarge's zany antics! Seems that over the last week, a few rough spots got hit, so Sarge decided to do something off-the-wall for the stressing Kids Of The Company today. Well, the Fireplace was the first step, and with a few modifications, we were ready:

Taking a bolt-cutter to a Hesco barrier, Sarge made a charcoal grate for the
fireplace, and poured a bag of Kingsford from the PX onto the brick.

The next thing we needed, was all the fixin's, so here we are with these:

Three cans of Van Camp's beans, some Jim Beam BBQ Sauce, a can of
cinammon apples, some Hickory-smoked Spam, and a whole
shelf-load of spices, and we were ready. The Marines donated the small pots, as Sarge already had the stock-pot.

So, then we started up Sarge's Chuck Wagon!

People started coming over to see what Sarge was doing, busy as he looked at the
fireside. Paper plates started apperaing out of nowhere, and and after sundown
and a lot of stirring and poking and spicing, Sarge banged on the stockpot lid
and yodeled, "COME AN' GIT IT!!"

And did they ever, by twos bellying up to the pots and sitting by the fireside.

Groan was one of the first to help Sarge with the table and the fire and the fixin's, so first plate was his.

After the food started dissappearing, and the wood started building a nice evening blaze, we all settled in to eat, and talk about the day, and think about all you back home. After a while, the folks started drifting back to the barracks and to work, and Sarge did up all the dishes and settled by the fire himself, happy with the results.

That's what Sarge did today, Folks!

Sarge will be in the area for a while, so Let's Have Fun!

Happy as a lark.

Not loosing a good dog was a grand outcome.

[TASMANIANRED]

I've been in snow up to my armpits.

Was helping my brother deliver newspapers after a blizzard.

Stepped off a retaining wall and I was stuck.

[MS.BEHAVIN]

I wasn't so much worried about him getting hit by a car..because we live way out in the country.
However, there is a dairy farm down the road, and also lots of deer around..if he had chased either one..
He would have been shot by the farmer or a game warden.
