[radu]

Howdy do, Conor! *HUGZ*

I wasn’t sure you’d still be here since I’m a bit late.

I’m doing well enough this evening. I hope you are too. Still finding time to get outside for a bit for walks? Nice to finally have nice weather for it after such a hot, steamy summer.

Thanks, Mac, for the Missing Man Setting as we remember those who have given their all that we may gather safe and secure.

A;as...I had to go food shopping today which is most inconvenient on a motorcycle, so I took the car.

Then we had an epic thunderstorm, so I’m glad i was inside! :-)

[ConorMacNessa]

Good evening, ML!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, luvie....for sure, we will ALWAYS remember!!

[Kathy in Alaska]

YES!! Happy Birthday to us! 19 years since the Canteen “opened” its doors.

[luvie]

Absolutely!

[radu]

Another birthday? A night full of celebrations!

Mrs. MacNessa!

[radu]

Howdy, luvie.

I hope you’ve had a good day!

[luvie]

Howdy, radu!

It WAS a good day. Got some stuff done, had a nice nap. it’s warmer than I like, but I’m resigned to having 12 months of summer. LOL! At least the nights are pleasantly cooler.

How are things there? Do you think Delta will make its way to your back door?

[radu]

Glad it was a good day. It would have been even better if the temps would drop a bit. Y’all need some autumn.

Still quite nice here. Sunny with temps around 80. Just too cruddy to want to spend much time outside due to the pollen and dust.

I don’t know what to expect from Delta. Initially we were expected to get a good dose of rain but they’ve backed off a little now. Just have to wait and see what happens this weekend.

[luvie]

I’m getting no rain and you guys are still covered up with pollen. And we both have dust. We both need a good soaking rain more than anything!

[MoochPooch]

Evening, Kathy!

[E.G.C.]

A very pleasant good Thursday morning to ((HUGS)) to everyone at the Canteen and to all our military at home and abroad. Thanks for your service to our country.

How's everyone doing this morning?
