A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day
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....Every Day was introduced on June 24, 2002. It's only a small room in JimRob's house where we can get to know one another a little better; salute and support our military and our leaders; pray for those in need; and congratulate those deserving. We strive to keep our threads entertaining, fun, and pleasing to look at, and often have guest writers contribute an essay or a profile of another FReeper.
On Mondays please visit us to see photos of A FEW OF FR'S VETERANS AND ACTIVE MILITARY
If you have a suggestion, or an idea, or if there's a FReeper you would like to see featured, please drop one of us a note in FR mail.
We're having fun and hope you are!

Since it's Valentine's day, I wanted to spot light 3 happy marriages. I chose, The Reagan's, The Bush's and the Bush's. You can see by the way they look at each, these couples have found their true love.
*His proposal was a simple one over dinner, "Let's get married." Her response was, "Let's." In 1952 President Reagan married Nancy Davis *The couple walked hand in hand always, and they often left love notes for one another. *Nancy: "What can you say about a man, who on Mother's Day sends flowers to his mother-in-law, with a note thanking her for making him the happiest man on Earth?" *Nancy: "My life began with Ronnie" *Book by Nancy Reagan: I Love You, Ronnie: The Letters of Ronald Reagan to Nancy Reagan. *The memories were many, including the good times the Reagans shared on their California ranch, which Ronald Reagan called "Rancho Del Cielo" - or Ranch of Heaven
George and Barbara Bush met at a Christmas dance in 1941 They became engaged a year and a half later, just before he went off to war as a Navy torpedo bomber pilot. By the time George returned on leave, Barbara had dropped out of Smith College. Two weeks later, on January 6, 1945, they were married. After George graduated from Yale after World War II, Barbara and George moved out to Texas to start their life together.
George and Laura met at a back yard barbeque at the home of mutual friends and were married three months later. George took Laura to a miniature golf course on their first date. *Small wedding married on November 5, 1977 *Laura: "We had known each other about 2-1/2 months," she says of the proposal, "but I knew I wanted to marry him." *Laura: "George and I have learned one important thing: whatever happens in life, we handle it." *George: "I saw an elegant beautiful woman who turned out not only to be elegant and beautiful, but very smart and willing to put up with my rough edges, and I must confess has smoothed them off over time." *On November 25, 1981, George and Laura's fraternal twin daughters, Barbara and Jenna, were born.

Oh, GeeBee......what a beautiful and uplifting post today! It made me smile. Love stories always touch my heart and there is nothing better than 'true life' love stories to make us realize that "love" is all around us.

lonestar has been busy with storm cleanup (plumbers finally got here to work on pipes and drains--all outside in the yard-- that were damaged by uprooted trees!). Now they can't find the leak in a pipe under the ground that was near a hydrant that a tree fell on.
And-- the computer has been sloooooooow.
I'm having a BIG Valentine's Day party! All the critters are giving me Valentines! It's always about meeeeee!
