Happy Friday, Pusterfuss...((HUGS))...45 here, after a nice sunny 60s day, and today should be the same. How’s your week gone? Trips on the horizon?

Yes. I'll probably try to limit myself to a half day, though.

Good morning, Everyone. Good morning

Thank you, Ma , for preparing the Canteen for today’s activities.

DC Metroland weather report

~ Today....A mix of clouds and sun. High 84F. Winds S at 10 to 15 mph.

~ Tonight....Some clouds. Low 68F. Winds S at 10 to 15 mph.

Another fine day but rain is on the way tomorrow eve.

Normally I'd be woo hooing and TGIFing all over the place but since I am on vacation I really didn't want Friday to get here so fast.

I'll be here a little longer this morning before I have to run off to another appointment. I'm going to have another busy weekend as my Floridian son and granddaughter will be coming in and staying for a couple of days. And, a baby shower on Saturday afternoon. I really hate having a busy weekend right before I have to go back to work.

It's Friday. That means music, fun, and mayhem!

Time for me 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!

And, for the rest of you………..

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

DEFENDERS OF FREEDOM
