Memorial Day Military Tribute thread here at the Finest.

Yes. :) We can't go changing Amy's Place to A Few of FR's Finest anyway!

Also, JohnHuang doesn't seem to check his FR Mail, and I've already talked to dutchess - she may still want to post the Two Cents here - maybe not every week, but some weeks at least.

[Billie]

Hugs and smiles to you, Miss Kitty - for all your pretty graphics, your sweet posts, and your FR Mail. Thank you.

[Billie]

Not going to say good byes since the Finest will still be here, just not posted as often.

Thanks for that! We really will still be here, and there, and around and back again. :)

[The Mayor]

Yes it is or was... : )

[Billie]

Thank you, AuntB - we’re not going too far away and not for good - there will still be special posts occasionally, but not daily.

[Billie]

Awesome flowers on your King’s Ranch - and framed ‘awesomely’!

[Billie]

Dave, I love it! Love that you got pictures - you were having a blast, we can tell!

[Billie]

Neat, Dubya! (drag racing?) And which one’s you? :)

[Billie]

I was clocked at 160 MPH on I-10 between Phoenix and Tucson.

EEEEEEKKKK!

[Billie]

I love strawberry shortcake - I like it with the little sponge cakes, with ‘biscuits’, or with angel food cake!

[The Mayor]

And that is what we will do. Special Military Tribute threads, JohnHuang’s 2 cents and the state threads, we will still be here, just not every day.

[The Mayor]

Like I said, I would never do it again. That was just to fast.

[Billie]

Perfect!!! I think we can fit!

[Billie]

We always have room but I will also look forward to new threads at the Finest.I've always looked forward to the new ones that everyone creates.

Amy’s and the Finest are the same but different somehow.

That's true - I have always thought of both of them as 'feel good' threads, but they are a little different kind of 'feel good'.

[Billie]

You got it, dita!

I was indeed having a blast.

They brought in two planes. They take lots of pictures, plus there are three video cameras mounted on and in the plane to record the entire thing from pre-flight to pulling up at the gate at the end of flight.

Course the pix and video cost extra, but what the heck, for me it was a once in a lifetime experience.

Mrsdd and our girls were out there taking pics and video before and after the flight. It was well recorded. :) Christian and Logan skipped classes to watch Poppy.

Our oldest, to determine how much I liked it, asked, “Would you like to do it again”?

“ABSOLUTELY!!!”, dd replied, wearing a big grin.

"This was my 65 Mustang, 350 HP, 4sp, I was clocked at 160 MPH on I-10"

My 65 mustang was only 271 HP with a very modified C4, and it got radared at 148 MPH just outside of Jean Nevada, on I 15. Got away with a "word to the wise."

I wasn’t that lucky... Impounded vehicle and heavy fines. That was almost 20 years ago too.
