Doing fine here, Snugs. I've been busy the last few months, moving from California to Texas.

Pretty much settled in now, and looking forward to seeing the Dallas Cowboys wup up on the Giants tomorrow (American football.)

Could I get that opening sunset picture from this thread on my toaster?

I have not checked out photo bucket since this morning when I uploaded my last toaster

Hi everyone! Just wanted you to know that there are people outside of the States who are praying for President Bush’s safety during this trip.

Could anyone please tell me why the First Lady is not accompanying the President?

Thanks.

[STARWISE]

That’s wonderful! Thank you. There can never
be too many prayers for President Bush, especially
now, and we appreciate it.

I’m sure if he knew that, he’d be SO moved and
grateful. You know, I’ll bet you could send
him an email and tell him... someone in the White
House will definitely get it.

Thanks for visiting, and thanks for the prayers.
Come back often .. sadly, only one year left.

I think kaslin did it as a link so not to disturb the run of starwise’s photos as it showed up as a link on my screen as well

Where IS Nick?

Nick!

[snugs]

Hello long time no see hope you are keeping well

[NordP]

I don’t know why she isn’t there, either; but thank you for your concern for our President. You warm my heart. Thank you so much for your prayers.

Another possibility for your picture hosting needs would be the SanityIsland.us site, which I run. Snugs uses it some. See further instructions on my Freeper home page, at SanityIsland.us Daily Dose Image Server Instructions. It's a low budget operation, running an open source program called Gallery.

Four out of five people who have tried it went on to something else instead; but you're welcome to give it a try, and if you find it to your liking, make yourself at home there.

NICK? NORD! Hi there

[anotherdownundergwbfan]

Thanks Starwise. I always presumed they wouldn’t be so interested in messages from people outside the USA. Maybe I should give it a try! :)

Any clues about Laura?

Great photos tonight Starwise. The Palace in Bahrain is gorgeous. And the Kuwaiti woman is beautiful. Hurry home President Bush. You have been gone too long and we worry about you.

The First Lady has visted the Arab countries a few months ago on her own and so maybe it was considered that in this visit it would be hard to schedule events that she could attend as it would just end up being a repeat of what she had done recently and often it might not be appropriate to accompany the President during this trip.

The last time the VP did a extended tour of the middle east Lynne did not accompany him at the time we suggested that this may have been because of the imminent birth of Mary's child but maybe it was for the same reason that Laura has not accompanied the President this time - who knows our speculations maybe way off beam.

There is of course the other consideration of security and it may also have been a factor.

Hi Snugs, Yes I have only been lurking for a while. Mostly by the time I get here everyone has gone to bed. :)

But I am still cheering for the President.

Thanks for asking, I am OK, but not yet great.

[snugs]

I sent the VP and Lynne an anniversary card last year by mail and asked for a photo and his office sent me this photo all the way to Britain.

So I am sure the White House would love to hear from someone in Australia.

I think I could stay another 3 hours and find more news photos, but I'm confident I've captured the essence of the President's Day today. I hope you all think so. May God protect him and his party, until his safe return home to the USA.

I'll leave with a couple of photos that I find touching, and especially the sentiments in the first.

If it can snow in Baghdad for the first time ever in anyone's memory as it did this week, let's hold onto hope and to the belief that many things are possible. Many of the Iraqi's who experienced this were touched spiritually, and took it as a great sign of hope. May it be so .. dear Lord, let it be so.

"I rushed quickly to the balcony to see a very beautiful scene," he said. "I tried to film it with my cell phone camera. This scene has really brought me joy. I called my other friends and the morning turned to be a very happy one in my life."

This one of President Bush at Camp Arifjan in Kuwait is so impressive.

God bless Pres. Bush, Gen. Petraeus and our unparallelled troops as they fight darkness and sacrifice for freedom, all over the globe.

ALL CLEAR for posting or re-posting photos or appropriate graphics in keeping with the spirit of this thread.

Thank you for your wonderful thread this evening I know what a massive task it is when the President is abroad there are so many photos and it is not easy sifting through them.

[anotherdownundergwbfan]

You are welcome!

[anotherdownundergwbfan]

Wow! I would love a photo. Thanks for the suggestion. Do you think it would make a difference if I send a request by mail rather than email?

BTW: sorry about the delay in replying I am still on very slow dial-up.

[snugs]

Personally I think mail is better and more likely to get a response.
