It's been a while but here is a new Freeprer Foxhole thread

A personal note if I may, this thread is dedicated to the memory of my good friends dad Homer Freeman. Mr Freeman passed away a little over a year ago, he was a crewman on the USS Alaska and was very proud of his service during WW-II. Homer was a man who had seen a lot of adversity in his life but he was upbeat and jovial right up to the end. I am sorry that it took me this long to get this posted but I am pretty sure Homer would have gotten a kick out of it regardless.

Wonderful thread alfa6, great topic, nice looking boats. Great to see a new thread especially since we've been "offline" for nearly two weeks!! We finally have DIAL-UP.

Talk about taking a trip back in time! Dial-up is all we can get out here in the Georgia deep south.

Hello to everyone, we've missed you all. Sam isn't hooked up yet but I expect he will be tomorrow or the next day. It took me quite awhile just this evening to get the software loaded, dial in and wait for the connection.

Everything is fine here, the furniture, dogs and Sam made it down fine. Sam has been setting up the house and clearing the property this since he arrived on the 1st. I've been doing my daily commute to Tallahasse and happy to come home to a peaceful home, good food and good company.

The dogs have a temporary farm fence they can play around in until we can afford a real fence on the full acre.

Again, we have missed you all and hope to be in touch more often but for tonight it took so long to hook up the first time that now it's time for bed, and way past my bedtime.

We love you guys. Soon we'll be freepmailing email addresses and phone numbers as we get them all set up.

Snippy and SAMWolf
