We Support Our Troops! For the freedom you enjoyed yesterday... Thank the Veterans who served in The United States Armed Forces.
No greater love hath a man than to give his life for his friends.
FR CANTEEN MISSION STATEMENT: Showing support and boosting the morale of our military and our allies military and the family members of the above. Honoring those who have served before.
On Valentine's Day, we celebrate love. Usually we celebrate the love between a man and a woman. However, there are many faces of love, and I believe that our men and women who serve or have served in our armed forces are the epitome of love. The sacrifice, the caring, the hardships--they endure all because they believe in our country, they believe in defending her people, and they believe in the rights for which our forefathers fought so adamantly. I dedicate this thread to recognizing the faces of love that these fine folks show to us in so many ways. God bless each of them. |

Oh no. Late night. :( But it is good for business. Those last minutes shoppers, getting their honey a gift on the last minute. They get credit though, at least they have good taste. :) LOL

Only in a blur
years ago, when my son was coming back across country from Twenty-nine Palms, Mr. Beachy and I helped him drive his car and some of his stuff back.
You know how men are.......they have to try to set a new record every trip. There were two of them, this time....LOL
We left on a Friday afternoon/evening, drove all the way, non-stop (except for gas and food/drink) and made it home sometime on Sunday. I think they hooped and hollered it was done in 36 hours.
See, blur!
I think I remember getting T-shirt from one of the gas-n-go places somewhere in Texas! LOL
