From Xerox ~ Let's Say Thanks to our Troops

Simple. Easy. Involve your kids.
We can each send thanks every single day.

[BIGLOOK]

Aloha Lauren!

What a beautiful spot to visit that I never knew about before! Thanks!

[Tucker39]

To Whomever is in charge of the Road Trip: I have been a “dues-paying” Freeper for some years now. Always wanted to attend a rally somewhere and get to know some other Freepers. Now I am finally retired and free to do some of that kind of stuff. This one in SC has come up at rather short notice and I can’t make it. But if I had some advance notice about some rallies, I would hit the road and join in some of them....and maybe bring a warm body or two along, as well.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Thanks, lauren, for today's Road Trip: Patriots Point, South Carolina
