"Prayers for the 4 brave crew being said Tonk"


Thanks SAM
I talked to all 4 of them before they got underway.
They knew what to expect and gladly went.
3 Brothers and 1 Sister, all in their early 20's.
They will be in for one hell of a night.

It's unfortunate news to hear about people who have given so much and get so little in return.

[SAMWolf]

Thanks Misty, at least some of us are thinking.

[SAMWolf]

Last report I heard at least the 80 mile winds didn't show as expected, but they were still talking 20 foot waves.

[Victoria Delsoul]

LOL!! She looks familiar.

[DoughtyOne]

I have all of them. You can reference the first thread where they appeared, and they'll still be there too.

[SAMWolf]

Some VA hospitals are pretty good but when they're bad they really stink. SOme Vets would rather not get the care than be put through the wringer.

[SAMWolf]

Thanks, I'll go back and save them to my HD.

[Jen]

You sure learned a lot at that Rodeo! Hahahaha! I love your rope tricks.

[Jen]

Thank you for the update of the helicopter crash in Honduras.

[Jen]

I think souris must be hiding under your hat the way it's moving around like that. Have you seen that petite mouse around here???

[Jen]

I updated the Foxhole ping list and removed your name.

[MistyCA]

Well, it's just our job to be thinking about different things. :)

Thanks! From out of the past - "Sweepers, man your brooms. Sweep down all lower decks, ladders, and passageways. Now, sweepers."

[MistyCA]

LMAO! No kidding!!! LOL!

[Jen]

That's fantastic, Jen! Gail's graphic is beautiful on that post!

Uhhhhh, thank you Misty. But I didn't make the graphic, I just found it on the web and 'borrowed it' for awhile. Now I realize why I liked it so much when I spotted it! hahahaha Sorry Gail!

[Jen]

Prayers for the Coast Guard crewmembers involved in this rescue and for the people onboard the sailboat. Thanks for letting us know about this rescue Tonk. Please keep us posted.

[Jen]

You are welcome Victoria! Glad you are here tonight.

[Jen]

Misty! How did you haul my hot tub all the way out here in the boonies to our Foxhole? Good grief!

[MistyCA]

I know that to be a fact, about some rather having no care then bad care! My brother has been very fortunate, but it has not been without great turmoil and stress at times. And he would rather not go to the hospital in Long Beach! There is just no excuse for that sort of thing! Yes, I can understand why a General hospital that gives out free care might be sub-standard in appearance, but to treat the Vets on the same level as free care is despicable! Our priorities are all screwed up!
