My daughter can’t wear any of the cheap stuff. Her ears swell up like crazy!

No well.. Municipal water.

2 acres on the edge of a farm.

Electic heat with a wood burning furnace back up.

30x30 pole barn.

I’m afraid the quiet and/or animal noises will keep me up nights.

Mine get sore if I go from wire to posts..

So I tend to stick with the same pair for months on end.

Electric heat will cost you a fortune, and if the weather turns bad, you’ll be up the creek.

Learn to burn (wood) primarily.

The quiet might seem strange to you at first, but I guarantee you will learn to love it, and will crave it after a time.

I would garden heavily, do canning, and all that great stuff!
I wish I had more time to do it here.
It sounds like a lovely place, and I wish you all the best!

I presumed the same about the electric heat.

I have a big area for a garden..

Frazzle phones.

Now I’m out of time.

Night Schatzi.

Night Everyone

Good evening and happy 235th birthday, Markos. We thank you for your service to our country.

On November 10, 1775, Robert Mullan, the proprietor of the Tavern and son of Peggy Mullan,
was commissioned by an act of Congress to raise the first two battalions of Marines,
under the leadership of Samuel Nicholas, the first appointed Commandant of the Continental Marines.
Nicholas's grandfather was also a member of the Tun Tavern Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons
and it is this relationship between Mullan, Nicholas and the Tavern
which has resulted in Tun Tavern being acknowledged as the birthplace
of the United States Marine Corps. There are an estimated three million active and retired
U.S. Marines worldwide who have been exposed in their military training
to the historical significance of Tun Tavern.
Each year on November 10th, around the world Marines toast the Marine's birthplace
on the most significant date in the history of the Corps.

Happy Birthday USMC
Semper Fi!

also, on 10NOV56 I was sworn into the USN with 100 or so young lads in the LA Coliseum during halftime at the Rams/49ers game as part of the Veterans Day festivities.

I have a white noise machine, and a travel one too. Ticking clocks drive me crazy.

A very pleasant good morning to everyone at the Canteen and to all our military at home and abroad. Thanks for your service to our country.

I'm going to be off the Canteen today. I have too many things going on.

Hopefully, I'll be back tomorrow.
