FTH was at the press table. Her boyfriend was also there.

Thank you, Louie, for always remembering to compliment me on my posts. Your sweetness is only surpassed by your charm. :-)

fuzzy hugs ((((((Louie)))))))

Hey, Aeronaut.....Got a late start this Monday morning, eh? ;-)

[Taxman]

Well, I thought it a worthwhile event, myself.

Thanks for asking if you could help us in our final preparations, BTW. We appreciated all the help we got, and I thought everything was well in hand when you asked me if you could lend a hand.

[Mama_Bear]

WOW! MB, Loved what you did to my letters!

Well, thank you Pipper! Glad you like them. Thanks for sharing them with all of us.

Hope you didn't catch cold out standing in that snow.....you and your patriot friends are certainly dedicated FReepers!

[Mama_Bear]

Good Mornin' Hostesses with the Mostest.

Good morning to you!

Hey, I came across your Modesto rally thread. I didn't get pinged, so I almost missed it. Anyway......good job up there! I love to see 'support our troops' rallies, large or small. It does my heart good. :-)

Pippin - Most excellent letters!

[Mama_Bear]

Hi, Billie. Sorry it has taken me so long to work my way down to your post. I've kind of had my hands full this morning. LOL.

Hope you have a nice, relaxing day today. Take some well-deserved time for yourself. I'll hold down the fort here......at least for awhile longer. :-)

[Mama_Bear]

Thank you, Billie, for posting this prayer request.

STARWISE, I can sympathize with what you are going though. My 84 year old mother-in-law was hospitalized two weeks ago with pneumonia. But, we live in the same town so we were able to be with her at the hospital and now that she is home. It is particularly difficult when you live so far apart.

The prayers and concern coming from my friends on FR meant so much to me and my husband. In turn, I am praying for you and your mother. May our Lord and Savior surround you both with Peace and Comfort during this difficult time.

Enjoyed your open letters Pippin!
Great opener today MB!

Our country is truly blessed. We are blessed with opportunity, natural resources and good people. Ours is a land of great diveristy in its' beauty, with a heritage of citizens who have time and again come to its' defense. The greatest asset we have is that, above all else, our country is "Blessed With Freedom".

Thank you, Mama_Bear...thank you, Pippin...)

Thank you, jw, for being here every day with your positive and up-lifting comments. Even on the sunniest of days, you always manage to brighten things up even a bit more around here. :-)

...Anyway......good job up there! I love to see 'support our troops' rallies, large or small. It does my heart good. :-)

Thanks. It was a spur of the moment thing for me on Saturday. The Bee had an announcement that the anti's would be protesting, so I called HD and fxr. Turned out that a few non-FReepers were equally disturbed by the anti's and we mounted a Support Our Troops rally. One of those patriotic citizens happened to be an old aquaintance from about ten years ago. I helped him coach our daughter's softball team back then. He happened to pass by the intersection on his way home from the bank, got his wife and two Stars and Stripes and came back to join the rest of us. KEWL, huh? The honking horns, waves, and thumbs up were like saying "Sic 'em" to a bulldog.

Beep Beep!

[Mama_Bear]

Mama_Bear...Great Pippin Graphic with the Red White and Blue letters. Did you make that? If so would you mind making a mixer one for me?

No, I sure wish I could make something like that (and I would love to make one for you), but, as Pippin said, ST.LOUIE1 gave it to her. You might check out some of the signature sites, from what I understand there are people who will custom make them for you.

[Mama_Bear]

KEWL, huh?

KEWL indeed! :-)

[Aquamarine]

Sorry Mama B...I should have sized that picture down some.

[Mama_Bear]

Thank you, Taxman, for standing out in the cold and snow for three hours to show your support for America. I enjoyed watching the event on C-Span.....can't tell you how much I would have loved to have been there!

[Molly Pitcher]

Thanks MB, and

Pippin, your love and pride in your country just shines...so bright and clear and strong! Very Good!!

Hope everyone has a safe and productive day.

[Taxman]

I enjoyed every minute of it. Always proud to Stand Up for America with my FReeper FRiends.
