Howdy, LUV.

Hope you had a good day. Has the wind let up yet or are you still choking on dust?

Here’s an interesting video about the Boneyard in Arizona:

Hi, radu!

No dust but the wind is just strong enough to make the 31 degree temp feel like 21. Pretty cold!

Thanks for posting the link to this video about the Boneyard in AZ.
Man, how cool it would be to wander among all that history. It’s sad to know some of those planes will be gone forever one of these days.

BRRRRRRRR! Sounds miserably cold.
I haven’t stepped outside tonight so don’t know if the wind’s still blowing here or not. It sure made it tough to leave the house this afternoon, that’s for sure.

A very pleasant good Tuesday morning and ((HUGS)) to everyone at the Canteen and to all our military at home and abroad. Thanks for your service to our country and thanks Lauren for this morning's thread.

How's everyone doing this morning?

Howdy, E.G.C. ((HUGZ))

I hope you had a nicer day than we did so you could enjoy time at the lake. It was cold and windy here but at least it was dry. Our last dry day for at least a week. *sigh*

Any more distractions to make Gizmo take off yesterday. :-)

((LOL))Well, he chased some birds out at the park yesterday but at least he came back to me. We had a great time out there.

We're under a Winter Weather Advisory today so we'll see what happens. Most likely we'll be sleeping in today.

It is getting colder and “feels like” 17 degrees right now with 15mph breeze blowing.

I’m going to head out. See ya tomorrow night...maybe...for the quiz!

Nice that he went back to you when you called instead of making you chase him down.

So y’all are in for some rough weather, too, huh? We’re under a flood watch, if not warning, over the next three days.

We’ve been at 32 for a little while and since it’s cloudy, we might not drop much more. I stepped outside a little while ago and there was just a hint of a breeze but the upper winds must be whipped up. High thin clouds were flying past the moon.
The rain is getting close to us, coming up from the south. Guess that glimpse of the moon is the last I’ll get for a while.

Sleep well. I hope it warms up a bit tomorrow .... and the wind dies down!

Good ol Camp Mary...my military “home” for three years when I served in the Tx Army National Guard.

Morning everyone!

At one point up until the mid 70’s (I think) the 143rd Infantry Regiment (Airborne) still used where the running track is now as their drop zone.

I can only imagine what it was like driving down MoPac and seeing that on a Saturday!
