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

Yesterday at Comanche Lake:

How's everyone doing this morning?

…United Nations of Weasels. LOL

Oh, that one sounds like fun! I do have the Iraq Most Wanted deck. And I have some pre-war Iraqi currency with Saddam’s picture on the bills.

Howdy, E.G.C. ((HUGZ))

It looks like you and Gizmo had a fabulous day over there yesterday.

It IS fun. LOL

One of Hubby’s buddies who was deployed to Iraq gave him a few Iraqi bills with SoDammed’s pic on them but I don’t know what he did with them. I’d forgotten about them until you mentioned them. They must still be over at the old house.

I’ll bet I know someone who’d ship you a few! *hint-hint* LOL!

Nice to know what they are. They look like the DQ “free blizzard” pogs which I have not redeemed yet.

Ok...I’d better go now that I learned something new. See y’all tomorrow!

They’re in my storage unit in Houston, but I can look for them next time I pop in there. I’m pretty sure I know which box (trunk) they’re in. I don’t know when that will be, but I’ll be glad to toss a handful in a small manila envelope and send them.

I haven’t been to DQ in quite a while so didn’t know they had something similar. I never heard of pogs at all until today. I reckon I’m not “with it”. LOL

Sleep well and be kind to your alarm in the morning. Catch ya tomorrow.

That is sooooooo true. LOL I left a few things over there because I don’t use them anymore but he left a lot of things over there.

LOL! I have to admit that would be awesome. But I wouldn’t want you to put yourself out just for that. Things in storage aren’t always easy to find.

I don’t know why I think they’re so cool. They only recently showed up in the display case but they caught my attention, even though I didn’t know what they are. LOL

We sure did. It was a little bit warm but we had as great time and Gizmo did find some water to quench him off.

We had a power outage from the storm Friday night. It didn't last more than an hour though. We have storms coming in from Northern Oklahoma right now so we'll see what happens.

WOOHOO! A possible new volunteer, and a VET...your favorite folks to chat with at the museum. Hope he sticks.

It did look like it was a little warm. Gizmo’s tongue was hanging halfway to his toenails. LOL I’ve seen it hang out farther, though, so it wasn’t too bad a day.

I didn’t have my computer on Friday night so didn’t know you had bad storms over there. I’ve noticed you have more heading your way now and I hope you can get through this round without losing power again.

They say we have a stormy afternoon and evening ahead, the worst hitting here around suppertime.

I hope he sticks too. We have a couple of other vets but the more, the merrier.

The rest of us are civilian but have had connections to the military in the past in one form or another. The main thing we have in common is respect and support for the military, and interest in the history.

My co-worker in Oklahoma said their “siren”, or whatever it is that gets them up and into shelters, went off Thursday (I think she said) in the middle of the night. Jump out of bed, grab the pets, and head for the shelter. Later in the the day her hubby told her “the rotation” (I expect you would understand) went right over their house. She said she’s really glad it hadn’t come down yet. She said they lost a bunch of trees.

Good morning, E...((HUGS))...and a Blessed Lord’s Day to you and yours.

Gizmo looks like he enjoyed lots of adventures...water and dirt and grass.

You guys have a great Sunday and keep a close eye on the weather.
