Must retire – the 0445 Reveille approaches relentlessly.

The Bugler, his grim visage replete with an evil sneer, already mounts the parapet.

late April 1961 I think....

middle of the night

dad and mom got me up at 4 years old middle of the night and loaded me in my quilt on the huge backseat of the old creme/gold Pontiac Star Chief to make a hurried ride from Jackson to Meridian on old US 80

clickity clack concrete highway

dad was finishing up his 7 years as by then Miss ANG squadron captain (F100s)...tacital...so this was right up his alley....sweet in the age of SAC

and they had been called emergency to fly down to Homestead or McDill...not sure

Mom was worried...

he rode in his old flightsuit I still have and his blue cap tilted a bit

and tennis shoes...I still remember those Chucks..lol

today Chucks on grown men are for hipster sissies

anyhow mom was worried and the drive back home was long

it was chilly and high dewpoint and on the way back we stopped in Newton for coffee and breakfast...the Cold War.....that and kneeling under our desks or in hallways against the wall...God love em.

I love the smell of coffee and yet I have never drunk it. Maybe I’ll get over that hang up in my senior years. I go for tea. Got any tea?

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 cupcake?

Cookies?

Pancakes?

Treats?

Those cross section cakes are so wonderful looking. Cake batter rings, or just specially cut cakes. My mom had a set of rings and made checkerboard cakes, just use ordinary cake mix, split the batter and color part of it specially.
