I am prepared to give my life in their defense."

I spent about 8 months in the 101st barracks. The 101st was in Viet Nam so they let us Engineers use the barracks. It was better than “Little Korea”, Ft Leonard Wood. That was 47 years ago though.

[SandRat]

Did you see this? hehehehehehehehehe

[PROCON]

Yo Navy Bro, doing well, the Dog Days of Summer are in full effect out here in the high desert of E. Washington.

A lot of son time lately and getting ready next month to attend my 15th, (make that 47th :-)) High School reunion.

What's up your way? You doing better?

[radu]

Greetings to all at the Canteen!

To all our military men and women, past and present,

[radu]

Howdy, PRO.

Have a good time with your son this weekend? Were you able to get to the range or was it simply too hot to be able to enjoy it?

[radu]

Howdy do, Conor! *Hugz*

I hope everything went well today.

[luvie]

Great road trip, Lauren!

That is where txradioguy will be stationed now that he and his family are home from Germany.

[PROCON]

Howdy there radu!

Dang, I missed you all weekend, I was in and out of the Canteen doing other "stuff".

Son and I got together for breakfast again Saturday and then spent most of yesterday afternoon/evening together BSing and of course, "saving the world", LOL.

I shopped this AM at the grocery store he works at then did a bit of shopping elsewhere too.

Your Monday good? Kittehs behavin'?

[radu]

We did keep missing each other over the weekend, didn’t we? I didn’t even get here last night. Friends of Hubby’s are in town and by the time they left, it was time to shower and get ready for bed. Today was one of the days to pull a shift at the headquarters.

Sounds like y’all had a good weekend, even if you didn’t get to the range. There’s always next weekend. :-)

A little slow at the HQ today but a few people showed up to get yard signs. It was still good to be away from the house but be inside since it was another roaster. Wish this heat wave would break!

Kittehs have been relatively good lately so I bought a few new catnip toys for them on the way home. They’ve been happily stupid since suppertime. LOL!

[The Mayor]

Thank you and Thanks for the thread!

Sending out prayers for Arrowhead1952 as he recovers from his horrible fall.
