I know you've got power.....otherwise you wouldn't be here!

[oldteen]

My hat is off to you (I don’t wear one but you know what I mean) cuz there isn’t that many years between us and I’m already a great-grandma! I just spoil them and send them home...hehehe!

[ConorMacNessa]

It's all a question of how long that little doggie can keep running on his little treadmill.

How old are yours, Pro? I have 14, 16 and 19 year olds still at home.

Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in peace!
We who remain hold you in high honor.
Rest, fallen brother, in this sacred precinct;
We who remain keep this place sacred.
Rest, fallen brother, among these, your comrades;
We who remain keep the watch.
Rest, fallen brother, among these who answered the Nation’s call;
We who remain press the fight forward in your name.
Rest, fallen brother, lay down thy burden;
We who remain have taken up the torch.
Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in eternal peace!

Thanks, Nana Hope, for today's Pledge. Thanks, AfghanMan and Penguin Girl, for your service to America.

Talk about a real trooper! I worry about a back injury tho. That is something if not taken care of can be with him for a very long time! Please give him my thanks for his service and hope it is something he can self heal. Prayers for him!

Lot of traffic lights out

Well, that's one thing we don't have to worry about. No traffic lights in this little town. And, coming in on either end of town, if you're going all the way thru, no stop sign either :)

[Thunder 6]

Good hunting on Fiddler’s Green Premierløjtnant Pløger. You are mission complete here.

regards,

[oldteen]

Did ya get some R&R?

[ConorMacNessa]

Hi Thunder - nice to see you and thanks for the kind words.

It was very nice. I go see my last remaining aunt and uncle
whenever I have the chance...and that chance came this weekend.

They live waaaaaay out in the country and it was so wonderfully
quiet and peaceful. Nothing stirring but the critters. LOL!
