A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day

Free Republic made its debut in September, 1996, and the forum was added in early 1997.   Over 100,000 people have registered for posting privileges on Free Republic, and the forum is read daily by tens of thousands of concerned citizens and patriots from all around the country and the world.

A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day was introduced on June 24, 2002. It's only a small room in JimRob's house where we can get to know one another a little better; salute and support our military and our leaders; pray for those in need; and congratulate those deserving. We strive to keep our threads entertaining, fun, and pleasing to look at, and often have guest writers contribute an essay, or a profile of another FReeper.

On Mondays please visit us to see photos of A FEW OF FR'S VETERANS AND ACTIVE MILITARY

If you have a suggestion, or an idea, or if there's a FReeper you would like to see featured, please drop one of us a note in FR mail.

We're having fun and hope you are!

SMILES

Verse:
Dear -ie, now I know just what makes me love you so,
Just what holds me and en -folds me in its gold -en glow;
Dear -ie, now I see 'tis each smile so bright and free,
For life's sad -ness turns to glad -ness when you smile on me;

Chorus:
There are smiles that make us hap -py,
There are smiles that make us blue;
There are smiles that steal a -way the tear -drops
As the sun -beams steal a -way the dew;
There are smiles that have a ten -der mean -ing
That the eyes of love a -lone may see,
And the smiles that fill my life with sun -shine
Are the smiles that you give to me.


Okay...sing-along time!!! (unless your freeping at work!)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There are smiles that make us hap -py,

There are smiles that make us blue;

There are smiles that steal a -way the tear -drops

As the sun -beams steal a -way the dew;

There are smiles that have a ten -der mean -ing

That the eyes of love a -lone may see,

And the smiles that fill my life with sun -shine

Are the smiles that you give to me.

HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY!!! - Love - Giz and Friends

They help out around the house...

Thank you, Miss Dutchess ... and Giz, Rusty and Fred ... you've added a smile to my day.

Here are a couple of pics of a friend of mine ... Jenny ... she used to live in a pasture outside of town, with a small herd of horses and some cattle. I loved to go visit them, and pass out carrots and sugar cubes.

The land was sold early this year, and the equines all disappeared, which greatly saddened me.

However, I found Jenny again, a couple of months ago ... she now lives in a corral at the edge of town with a couple of horses. I try to visit them once a week, with carrots for all, and a few extras for Jenny, cuz she knows that she's my favorite.

Last year, on the country road. She's herding me along.

This year, in her corral. My sweetheart ... )

[Aquamarine]

Good last minute work Dutchess, gives me another chance to post a picture of Miss Daisy. :)

[dutchess]

Thanks sistah....actually got the first part in an email yesterday (divine intervention LOL) and combined it with my previous one. BTW...dad's much better today :o)

They help your baby when he's teething.

Love that picture....MEOWWW indeed!!!

[PreviouslyA-Lurker]

Don't know if I should LOL or just say awwwww....

[Billie]

"Come a little closer, Jenny, and I'll give you a kiss."

[Aquamarine]

Your friend Jenny is a beauty. Glad you found her again.

[jwfiv]

Aww .. that little thing has quite a sweet face.

Goats are pure sugar, with a little spice thrown in for good measure ... )

[jwfiv]

Me too. It took a couple of looks for me to realize that it was actually her. When I finally stopped and asked about her, I was so delighted.

[Billie]

I'm so glad you and your dad are both feeling better today. :)

Did I say I love this thread?! :)

Those photos are fantastic! I hadn't seen any of them, I don't think! (I've gotten two groups of the cute animals recently, but not yours!)

Yes, I love the baby teething on the cat's tail, too!

And Gunner, your cat is a real ham!

[dutchess]

Oh my...Bailey is ALL grown up...there's NO puppy left in her!!!! LOL! BTW...loved the "scuba" picture of them the other day! That would be worth posting again here (hint hint) :o)
