Uh -- visiting troops from Texas?

Sure makes sense, don't it?

Perry has been real attentive about seeing the troops off and being on hand to welcome them back.

Though the 56th Combat Brigade (Texas 36th Infantry Division) has just returned home, I believe there are still Texas National Guard troops in both Iraq and Afghanistan . . . plus those serving with the reserves and regular forces deployed from Texas.

Hope Perry does the full tour, though.

Toward the end of January we deployed elements of the 36th to both Kosovo and the Sinai.  Bet the guys and gals in the Sinai especially would appreciate a little attention. 

Hey, maybe the Gov will bring along some good down home Tex-Mex cooking!

This morning I got an email from my husband: "Guess who I just ate dinner with?

The answer is: Governor Dave Freudenthal of the great state of Wyoming.

I even have a coin and a small state flag with his autograph to prove it."

We're originally from Wyoming, now we're brand new baby Texans. This was a real treat for him on both sides.
