WELCOME TO THE


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

Good morning, Everyone. Good morning

Thank you, Ma, for preparing the Canteen for today’s activities.
Interesting quiz.
Never expect to be walking in the desert so
this is based on my best guess.

Our local DC Metroland weather report

~ Today...Cloudy and damp with occasional drizzle this morning...
then becoming partly cloudy. High 59F.
Winds WSW at 10 to 15 mph.

~ Tonight... Mostly cloudy skies this evening.
A few showers developing late. Low 37F.
Winds WSW at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 30%.

You Are Thoughtful and Happy
You have an optimistic outlook. When troubles come your way, you try to see how you will grow and learn from them.

You have a few friends and family members that you are especially close to. You can count on them to be there for you.

You feel exhausted about your past and those you have loved. It's been a long, hard road.

You succeed by tapping into your reserves. You have an extraordinary amount of energy and endurance.
The Desert Test

Please stay right where you are.
Keep the troops and their families entertained.

The Canteen is

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

REMEMBER THEM ~ DEFENDERS OF FREEDOM

Woo-Hoo, Happy it's my Friday Beachie!!

I decided to take the train to my sister's tomorrow, it's cheap and very comfortable. It's a 240 mile trip, 4 1/2 hours, so I'll have plenty of time to do some crossword puzzles!

Rain is still keeping us from getting the ball fields ready, but spring is around the corner.

Man this coffee tastes good...

See ya Monday, have a great weekend!

Good morning dear ((HUGS))

Yup, we got the rain and winds yesterday. Sun is now out. Birdies are picking at the “not open yet” buds on the tree outside my window. Going for a walk shortly. That’s it for here.

Hope your day goes well.

Good morning Pro (((HUGS))

You lucky...guy...hehe...you get a 4-day weekend AND a train trip too. Only been on one train trip, but I loved it. Course, we got sleepers from Chicago to California. Trying to talk hubby in going on the Vermonter this fall for our 25th anniversary. But with money being tight now that the government has taken more of it...

We are having some sunshine this morning...and a taste of spring. Getting ready for a walk.

Have a warmlicious Wednesday. Safe, fun trip, too!

Good morning Luvy ((HUGS))

Lucky gal.

Although, starting in May I’m going to leave one hour earlier on Fridays until fall, or my leave runs out. LOL

If leave holds up well, I may take more time besides vacation time.

Have a fun day off.

Going OK now that the Internet is back on.

I don't know if you read my post from yesterday but Our ISP, Pioneer Telephone Cooperative, Kingfisher OK had their Internet servers break down Monday night due to the generator breaking down. The techs were not able to safely reach the generators due to the Blizzard and the treacherous road conditions Monday night. Pioneer has generators which power a number of their facilities through power outages.

Still a number of school districts in Northwest Oklahoma closed today. They're still digging out from the blizzard.

Had a great visit from my sister from the city yesterday. Enjoyed time with Bo at the lake. Today's forecast to be nice with highs in the 50's.

Mornin’, Arrow! (((hugs)))

It’s pretty breezy here, too, and cooler than yesterday. Up and down, up and down...these temps are making everyone sick! Especially when the wind stirs up allergens. Ugh!
