For the freedom you enjoyed yesterday... Thank the Veterans who served in The United States Armed Forces. Looking forward to tomorrow's freedom? Support The United States Armed Forces Today! Tour guide trussell Hi Everyone! Here we are for another trip to Mesa Verde. This portion is filled with many hidden treasures. Some of these ruins you...you have to look really hard to see. This is one of my favorites. It's several layers of ruins, built into very small crevices in the rock face. Some of these go back as far as 100 feet into the mountain! Others are just built in an area that you wouldn't expect to have homes. This one is in a canyon area, at the very end of the canyon.  Read about Mesa Verde Here: Mesa Verde National Park Another one with layers of ruins. One in the open, on the ledge, another in the cave above it. Do you think that's a third layer just under the ledge? Looks like it might be to me.   There are some built on top of peaks. They appear to be totally vulnerable to the wind and elements.   Another beautifully crafted home, tucked into a small nook. The people were very good at what they did!     They were so confident in their work, they built right up to the cliff! I wouldn't want to live there if I were prone to sleepwalking!! That's a long way down!!   This could possibly explain where we got the idea for High Vaulted Ceilings!! :)     This one is built on the floor of the canyon, with very low ceilings.   ****

It's 1400 here in the valley, and in the middle of a fierce sandstorm.

\Just threw another pot on the burner - and the Blue-eyed Devil will be yelling at me shortly, because it's Foo-Foo Coffee, as he calls it (anything with a flavor or an aroma is Foo-Foo...).

Mornin' (((Sarge)))...Sand with your coffee? Not good!

It's colder on Odessa than Anchorage at 620 AM. That *&%$ global warming again.

Good morning, Everyone. Good morning to our

Military, our Allies, and their families.

Thank you, T, for preparing the Canteen for today’s activities. Fred, here knows a thing or two about caves. He's very interested in taking this tour.

Today in DC Metroland, the sun is shining and the morning temps are not too bad. It will warm up, but only into the low 50s. But, hey, that's a start, right?

Looks like Mr. Beachy is taking me window-shopping for a new third vehicle. We've talked about getting a Trailblazer one day. And, I think he's got his eye on a 2005 one at the local dealer. We are stopping to look it over today.

Umpf....Umpf....bamf....Umpf....ark...Umpf....ark...

(translation = "I think them Injuns stole our caves")

You know, some people see me as a cave woman, but I'm not sure why I got that reputation

To all newbies and lurkers

Now, I've got to make my rounds. But, you stay right where you are. Don't touch that dial. Don't change that channel. Put down that remote. Don't leave the room. Keep your eyes on your monitor. Cause...............I'll be bock!

Now remember, the Canteen is ALWAYS

So, come on in and sit for a while. There's always plenty of coffee, pancakes, conversation, silliness, and plain old BS

REMEMBER THEM

Today's FEEBLE

YOKE :

The fourth-grade teacher had to leave the room for a few minutes.

When she returned, she found the children in perfect order. Everybody was sitting absolutely quiet.

She was shocked and stunned and said, "I've never seen anything like it before. This is wonderful. But, please tell me, what came over all of you? Why are you so well-behaved and quiet?"

Finally, after much urging, a little girl said, "Well, one time you said that if you ever came back and found us quiet, you would drop dead!!"
