I think Beamer wants to say hi. Beamer is the Canteen Mascot.

Let me introduce you to the man who will be introducing the models momentarily. Looking every bit as smashing as the models, I give you the inimitable Mr. SAMWolf. Take it away, Sam!

Our first model is.....uh-oh... looks like they're not quite ready for prime time. Say, have you heard the one about....?

Here's Whoever, looking like the vision she is, or is that.... isn't?

Mama_Bear's looking like one fine Mama, isn't she? Something about those California bears!

I tell you, that DaisyScarlett doesn't just look good, she can COOK, too!

Everybody loves a redhead! Here's the Canteen's sassy redhead, SassyMom....

Ah, Victoria Delsoul.....with a name like that, you know she's gotta be beautiful.....

Do blondes have more fun? This one certainly does, and is more fun to be around than anybunny could ever imagine......SnowBunny, Canteen Hostess Extraordinaire!

Here's the other Canteen Hostess, Billie. She's the ornery one, you can tell by the way she moves, you don't wanna cross her. (Watch those graphics - not too big, please!)

Thought you might like to see some of the ladies responsible for keeping the Canteen kitchen full of surprises. That's Mountaineer on the left, then Iowa Granny, and uh....who is that on the right....oh, that's who on the right.

One last look at some of the lovely ladies of the Canteen, and then we'll......
GUYS! Oh, geez, GUYS! Louie, Diver, what th'?.......

Ok, let's try again....Left to right below are some of the lovely ladies who grace the Canteen regularly with their presence, their wit, charm, talents, prayers and support for our troops: Mountaineer, Victoria Delsoul, LadyX, Whoever, D4now, Snow Bunny, Aquamarine, Teacup, SusanUSA, DaisyScarlett, Iowa Granny, SassyMom, Mama_Bear, Spookbrat, and Billie.

Good Night to the both of you.
May God Always Smile on you both.

[MistyCA]

When I was a kid I use to get up very early in the morning and take a walk around Hope Ranch. Yes, Santa Barbara is very nice, mostly because it is small. But so many of the little shops that were landmarks have been forced out by bigger businesses. It's good that we don't have to travel to Ventura to do some of the shopping, but I sure hated to see things "grow up" around here!

[WVNan]

It is almost heaven, MSIT. We walk down to the theater and to the local restaurant where we know everybody. Everyone knows everyone and we're not afraid to walk down the street at night. We don't have to lock our doors. Good night dear. Peace

[MistyCA]

Good night, Sam!

[WVNan]

Hi Bunny. I loved all your outfits in the fashion show. You're always so cute.

[WVNan]

Good night SAM. God bless.

[MistyCA]

Oh, no problem! It is a busy evening and very easy to do. It is good to see you and I enjoyed your modeling today!

[Snow Bunny]

Sam this is the beautiful thing. I love this and it is so true. We meet each others hearts and souls here.

You said this......."At the Canteen we show what people look like on the inside".........

I had an Aunt that used to say.."God blessed me real good"...... I say it now. God blessed me real good to meet you and so many dear people on here.Thank you.

[WVNan]

Just a quick hello to you Tonkin. Your spirit comes through so strongly in your words. I know you are a very special person. God bless.

[68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub]

God sure does Bless and Heal in the Canteen everyday.
I am in awe of the things HE does here daily.

[MistyCA]

All towns should be like that so all people can enjoy the experience of community.

[Snow Bunny]

Thank you and sweetv dreams. The After dinner show was wonderful.

[68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub]

"I know you are a very special person."

I am just a man on a mission that is directed by HIM.

[MistyCA]

It's a special person who notices those things, Tonk. :)

[68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub]

The remarks whoever made about you before, I agree 100%
You touch so many lives, and brighten so many souls.

[WVNan]

We see the spirit and not the body. In real time we are put off or attracted by bodies and miss the spirit of people. I'm thinking about Severa and her little brood waiting for her husband to come home. My heart aches for Long Cut and Mrs. Cut over the loss of their baby. I see Tonkin standing at his post or out on a CG boat tending to his "duty". I marvel at you and Billie creating all those graphics that are a mystery to me. And speaking of mysteries, there is whoever the illusive. I love those bad boys, SAM and Flag man who are always up to mischief. You see, already, even though I've only been here a short time, I sense the spirit of most of the regulars. Some I haven't come to know yet, but I will. Now it's time for bed for sure. nigh-tall. Peace...

[The Thin Man]

T Man, great production. And here I thought you were busy solving crimes with Asta....giggle

Now that the production is over, I'm back to solving crimes. My first one is very near and dear to me. The case of the stolen credit card.

[Mama_Bear]

Thank you, whoever. :-)

BTW, you looked smashing today in the Fashion Show. :-)
God's blessing on you and yours.

[68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub]

"It's a special person who notices those things"

For years and years I always asked God
"How can I make a difference?"
And for years I looked.
Then one day I listened to my heart and soul.
HE told me the answer was within.

[68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub]

"Now that the production is over,
I'm back to solving crimes. My first one is very near and dear to me.
The case of the stolen credit card."

LOL!!!!
