~Favorite Travelin Song's~





Peter Gabriel - Solsbury Hill + lyrics




Climbing up on Solsbury Hill
I could see the city light
Wind was blowing, time stood still
Eagle flew out of the night
He was something to observe
Came in close, I heard a voice
Standing stretching every nerve
Had to listen had no choice
I did not believe the information
I just had to trust imagination
My heart going boom boom boom
"Son," he said "Grab your things,


I've come to take you home."


To keep in silence I resigned
My friends would think I was a nut
Turning water into wine
Open doors would soon be shut
So I went from day to day
Tho' my life was in a rut
"Till I thought of what I'd say
Which connection I should cut
I was feeling part of the scenery
I walked right out of the machinery
My heart going boom boom boom
"Hey" he said "Grab your things
I've come to take you home."
(Back home.)



When illusion spin her net
I'm never where I want to be
And liberty she pirouette
When I think that I am free
Watched by empty silhouettes
Who close their eyes but still can see
No one taught them etiquette
I will show another me
Today I don't need a replacement
I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant
My heart going boom boom boom
"Hey" I said "You can keep my things,
They've come to take me home."

Eurythmics Sweet Dreams



Sweet dreams are made of this

Who am I to disagree?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused

Sweet dreams are made of this

Who am I to disagree?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused

I wanna use you and abuse you

I wanna know what's inside you
(Whispering) Hold your head up, movin' on
Keep your head up, movin' on
Hold your head up, movin' on
Keep your head up, movin' on
Hold your head up, movin' on
Keep your head up, movin' on
Movin' on!

Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused

I'm gonna use you and abuse you
I'm gonna know what's inside
Gonna use you and abuse you
I'm gonna know what's inside you

I just saw cracks under the store window.Might call the owner.Last week the river came up-no warning-and I had to walk through 3 feet of water to get to my truck.I skipped the Hurricane for the store.Heard the water was 5 feet from our front .Dirty water to get to my truck.people were taking pictures.The lower cars were flooded.It was just at my muffler but I was able to drive off.No Mercy-stay strong.

Good morning/afternoon/evening/night Troops, wherever you are.

Thank you for doing your part to help keep all of us free and safe.

Thanks, unique, for the pastries.

Coffee is always on........

How about a donut?

Cookies?

Veggies?

Sandwich?

WELCOME TO THE

(where our troops, allies and their families can refresh themselves)

Good morning, Everyone.
Good morning to our

AWESOME

Military, our Allies, and their families.


(another unique design)

Thank you, fatima, for preparing the Canteen for today's activities.

Now our local DC Metroland weather report

~ Today...Sunny. Highs around 70.
Northeast winds 5 to 10 mph...
Becoming east in the afternoon.

~ Tonight...Clear. Lows in the mid 40s.
Southeast winds around 5 mph...
Becoming southwest after midnight.

WooHoo, see that? Another sunny, warm day. I'm in heaven!

Ok, bag's packed. Now I need to
go check out what kind of music was chosen for the ride.
Things here at the office are starting to get more
manageable but still have stuff to get done
and filed away for last fiscal year.
Also have a meeting at 10.

Gonna make my rounds.
But, you stay right where you are.
Keep the troops entertained and the Canteen clean...
Cause...if you don't...I'll tell Ma!

Sit for a while.

There's always plenty of coffee,
pancakes, conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS

PLEASE REMEMBER THEM ....


(the Polish Army)

DEFENDERS OF FREEDOM

FR CANTEEN MISSION STATEMENT

Showing support and boosting the morale of our military and our allied military and the family members of the above. Honoring those who have served before.
