bttt!
I hope you get better soon - I miss you!
Thanks Tonk!
God Bless our troops and the DC Chapter.
I made it to D.C. and have been here since Wednesday. However, I came down with Strep shortly after getting here and barely made it through work today. I've been on antibiotics and I'm feeling quite a bit better, but 3 hours in the cold and wind is not a good idea. So, I won't be there tonight. Sorry. I'm disappointed, but I just can't do it. I'll be there next week though.
Hey Spiff! I was there again a couple of weeks ago and wished we could have had our Southwest contingent there to celebrate concretebob's acquistion of the pinkos permit! It was FUN to celebrate with those guys on all 4 corners. I hope you're feeling better soon and can make it next week! Same to you Landry Fan!!
HAVE FUN TONIGHT TO EVERYONE ELSE!!!

Great post and pictures bump!
Bump for all the faithful FReepers, freezing or soggy, East or West. Thinking of you all tonight.
I feel so proud to have meet you all at the Danish Embassy :)
Bump. Hope everyone weathered the cold!
Take it extra easy!!! If you have what everyone else seems to have, it takes a while to get over especially the coughing. We'll be around.
[Mr] T
Thanks for your support and believe me you guys are talked about at Walter Reed I can confirm that.
Don't mess around with strep; it can be very mean. Seriously. Make sure you're fully recovered. We'll look forward to seeing you then.
P.S. It was COLD! tonight. The flags looked great in the wind, which I think stayed steady at 20 or more mph.
They were at WR to be with their husband/brother/uncle who was seriously injured in 2003 (shrapnel from a cluster bomb, IIRC). He had plates put in his arm and he is going to have another surgery on Monday - he got a bone infection.
Please pass the word along to folks you know to remember Daniel from Ohio (4ID) in their prayers.
Some day I hope to meet you. I couldn't make the Danish Embassy. That was a brave Freep!
I just looked at my photos - and you're a blur!
Thanks for coming out and saying hey to us all. BTW, DC winters suck.
Glad to see you made it there and home again safely.
More AAR please?
I wondered about BillF. Is he sick? No reply to freepmail either. Fraxinus and Buford P are all that is left of our carpool!
See you soon.
