A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day
Free Republic made its debut in September, 1996, and the forum was added in early 1997. Over 200,000 people have registered for posting privileges on Free Republic, and the forum is read daily by tens of thousands of concerned citizens and patriots from all around the country and the world.
A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day was introduced on June 24, 2002. It's only a small room in JimRob's house where we can get to know one another a little better; salute and support our military and our leaders; pray for those in need; and congratulate those deserving. We strive to keep our threads entertaining, fun, and pleasing to look at, and often have guest writers contribute an essay.
On Mondays please visit us to see photos of A FEW OF FR'S VETERANS AND ACTIVE MILITARY

Good morning GeeBee.. looks like I am first! gully washers on & off yesterday eased our draught. Got to chiropractor also which was good. Acrupressure on sinus/allergies; ART on tennis/golf elbow/ treatment on carpal tunnel & regular adjustments on back/neck.
Man, as the old saying goes: Getting old aint for sissies.
Will post a few pix later of my pups from last weekend (ones John took).

The Sound Of Sirens
READ:
Revelation 21:1-5He who sat on the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. Revelation 21:5
I was enjoying my sons high school soccer game when the relative calm and normalcy of that warm September afternoon was shattered by a sound both distinctive and alarmingthe sound of sirens. The shrill whine seemed out of place at such a pleasant moment, and it demanded my attention. According to singer Don Henley, a siren usually means that somebodys going to emergency or somebodys going to jail. Hes right. In either case, someones day, perhaps including the law enforcement or rescue personnel, just took a turn for the worse.
As I lost my attention on the game and thought about the siren fading into the distance, it occurred to me that sirens are a reminder of a powerful reality: Our world is sadly broken. Whether the siren tells us of criminal activity or personal tragedy, it reminds us that something is desperately wrong and needs to be made right.
At such times, it helps to remember that God sees our world in its brokenness and has pledged that one day He will wipe away the old and make all things new (Rev. 21:5). That promise encourages us in the hardships of life, and it provides the whisper of His comforta whisper that can drown out even the sound of sirens.
He is coming! Star of Morning,
All the faithful caught away,
When the trumpet, in a moment,
Ushers in the glad new day. Dimmock
Gods whisper of comfort quiets the noise of our trials.

LOL :) I'm a sissy ;) Good Morning Dolly,
I have sore throat and ear ache. I was thinking water in my ear from swimming. Now that you said this, maybe it's allergies. Time for some Clariton.
I hope you feel better after seeing the chiropractor!
Hugs!

Pup Pix --- MY Warm Fuzzies:
This is part of the national park but a bit remote. The gorge here has a lot of white water & near the edges some areas of smooth shale or slate. We will go there prolly today & the water will be high & running fast. WIll take my inner tube. WIth this lower level of water there are some pools about chest high but in most of stream here you can walk in water shallow or no deeper than your knees. In the areas with the deep pools, once can still walk along edges to have low water. NOT TODAY however. Not a day for sissies! Most of the water will be over head for both John & me

your symptoms are similar to mine.. been under weather for over a week. Hope you get to feeling better. Suggestion.. minimize or eliminate meat while you heal. Give the immune system a help so it can do it’s work..
I take the Clariton generic regularly
got to get busy here. Lots on agenda.
