Hello, bentfeather! We had some sunshine too and some humidity. Even indoors, I can tell how humid it is because my hair, which is usually straight on a good day, curls up. LOL!

[mystery-ak]

Thanks for posting it....Mike would just die!...LOL.....btw...he's a lot thinner now(so he says)

[mystery-ak]

Come have a look....Eric's VIP..LOL

[LaDivaLoca]

[LaDivaLoca]

Thank you for all these links and pictures of our Troops. God bless them all.

[LaDivaLoca]

Please let your hubby know and those serving with him, how grateful we are for their service to our country. And a BIG THANK YOU and HUGS to you and your family.

[ohioWfan]

Cool! And at Ft. Campbell no less!

Eric is working out daily so he DOESN'T get thinner! Ah, youth!

[LaDivaLoca]

My heart goes out to the orphans but at the same time I am so proud of our servicemen and women - they sure have heart.

On a different note, I just heard thunder and rain outside. Want some of our rain, Kathy? LOL.

[Kathy in Alaska]

[Fawnn]

Prayers for your hubby's safe return.

(P.S. Tell him he looks fine in that pic!) ;)

[fatima]

LaDivaLoca,Gosh that looks so good.

[LaDivaLoca]

That's WONDERFUL NEWS, LC!!! Here are angels for you, Mrs. Cut and Mini Cut to watch over you.

I'm sorry to hear about your bronchitis. Try some hot tea with lemon and honey. Or gargle with warm water and salt. It might help.

THANK YOU for your service to our country, LC! You are always in our prayers. Take care and stay safe.

[mystery-ak]

LOL...I'll never tell him that his pic was posted on FR....I may bookmark it though just in case I need it for revenge.

[LaDivaLoca]

LOL! I get hungry too every time I see that picture.

I'm happy to learn about your sister. My prayers for her speedy recovery.

Ok now, aside from the rain and thunder, now there's lightning! I'm carrying my flashlight around - just in case.

[Brad’s Gramma]

So, he doesn't know? Now THAT'S a good one.

Are you going to tell him???? :-)

Thank him for us, please, for all he's doing. And thanks to you and your son.

[mystery-ak]

Noooo, he doesn't know...and I won't tell him until he makes me mad about something...then I'll show him what I did......he's too old for this...Im gonna try to talk him into retiring...wish me luck!

Hi,  mystery-ak!

Welcome to the Canteen!

Wanna buy a burka?

 

[Brad’s Gramma]

OK! I'll do that.

Good evening Diva.

The sun has set for the day. In the distant I hear the train whistle blow. This train hauls coal to the energy generating plant on the East Shore of the near by lake.

I love hearing the lone sound of a train whistle.

When I was a child we lived in very remote country land in a valley. We could hear the sound of the steam engine's whistle blowing from many miles away. It was an interruption in the air from the usually quiet of solitary rural life.

Memories from long ago. :-)

I have been looking for the Dragon poem and have no success yet. I'm sure there is a copy floating around some where probably in amoungst my mother's things, she saved all my work.

I will continue the search.
