After spending the winter in a warmer climate, 3DJoy in back in town for the summer. And she’s back in style. Just arriving last week, she was at Walter Reed, spent Friday night at the Olney Compound and was out at Olney, cheering for our brave troops. Then lunch at Dave’s Bistro. For those who know the place, they actually have a 6 page menu now. And the weather was almost perfect, just a little on the warm side in Olney. What a way to spend her first weekend in town.

But here in Olney she was a little more sedate (must have been all the blueberry pancakes and bacon).

The roll call of our 7 Patriots included Lurker Bill and daughter, 3DJoy, Cindy_True_Supporter, Fraxinus {Mrs} Trooprally, aka [Mrs] T,
and myself, [Mr] T. Sensei Ern showed up as we were breaking down. His cycle was supposed to be fix earlier so he could make it to the FReep but it was not to be. But he did join Fraxinus, 3D, and the Trooprallys for lunch.

He talked with us for most of our Freep to the detriment of us waving back to passing supporters. BELOW RIGHT: Marine talking to me upon his arrival. Cindy_True_Supporter looks on.
And some of our passing supporters.
And the moonbats? They were there, but few in numbers. FYI - the wave was for us.

That’s cool. You go, girl.
What a great AAR. For us I think it did feel like the longest day!! It is so great having 3D back in town. Hope to see you again real soon.
[Mrs T]
What a hoot! If I had seen the pictures before I arrived dressed like that...I might have lost my nerve!
(Mrs T) Thank you both for your encouragement. I do enjoy being kind of “off the wall”
It was wonderful to see everyone again.
You go girl!
With a traffic stopping outfit like that, well...
Great report. Wonderful to see 3D-Joy!

I’ll loan you my “shirt”...a gift from tgsl at Christmas.
What a beautiful day for the Olney FReep! Awesome pictures and welcome up this way 3-D JOY! We hope to meet you real soon. Nice job, Olney gang!
3D is anxious to get to Westminster. Probably now this Saturday.
Looks like Lurker Bill & I will be there though. You'll get second best in comparison to 3D, especially in the conversation category. [Mr] T
Thanks for the hello...
Sorry it was the wrong week to meet you...next time, or soon anyway!
Great to hear you and Lurker Bill will be in Westminster. Sure hope 3D-JOY can make it too. OK, well might get 2nd best in conversation compared to 3D but you will show off your ‘Leggs” while Lurker Bill has his smile and friendly wave!
Soon, the hello will be in person! Hopefully, this Saturday! Can’t wait! :)
Them Florida FReepers know how to party!
Thanks for the “party” remark!
Actually we are a very quiet area...darn it.
