RE: Olney FReep -

If you live in northern VA and want a short cut to Olney See Post 39 Here. It's an easy 20 minute drive from the American Legion Bridge.

A special Thanks to a FReeper FRiend for enhancing the original plain type directions.

The Archive of Olney FReeps is here or in the LINKS section of Trooprally's ABOUT Page.

WEATHER UPDATES HERE.

Thanks all. And it will be a very good Christmas. We didn’t spend too much time with him before they took off for home in NC. We’ll be heading down there for Christmas and more time for him and the family.

SANDRAT - he came up long enough to grab a quick smoke after being on the airplane for 8 hours. The writing on the pack was written in Arabic since he bought it in Kuwait.

Thank you Mr. T for adding the “personal” stuff. That was the best part. Welcome home to your son, and a big thanks from WV.

And it was only in the low 40s. I bet she never went to this past March's GoE I rally.

Check this out from weldgophardline - Last Saturday's FReep in Greeley Colorado, "... 9 inches of white stuff at a balmy 12 degrees".
