Support The Troops Continues - Walter Reed, Week 253
February 24, 2010 | Kburi

Posted on 02/24/2010 4:05:57 PM PST by kburi

Week 253, February 19, 2010 - After surviving the Great Blizzard of 2010, the DC Chapter continued supporting the wounded warriors and their families for the 253rd consecutive Friday evening.

FRONT GATE NOTES

Snow continued to melt, but a brisk wind made for a very chilly evening. Traffic on Georgia Ave was moderate and the drivers honked as they passed. Two buses returned from taking the wounded warriors and their families to dinner. The forecast is calling for 2 to 3 inches of more white stuff Thursday, a sign that winter is subsiding.

Four moonbats down the block. They just put in their two hours, and leave, quietly.

HONOR ROLL for February 19, 2010

Mr and Mrs Trooprally, Lurker Bill, Cindy True Supporter, Fraxinus, BufordP and Rongkirby.

Come join us every Friday night between the hours of 6:30pm to approx 9:30pm.

Kudos kburi, Ha, I’ve been wanting to say that. In my southern accent it rhymes. Looks like ya’ll had some left-over snow piles there. Reckon it will be there till July. Good on ya for braving the cold. Wish I could be there.

Looks good to me, thanks for posting.

With all the melting I doubt that I’ll be able to have my flag free standing in the snow bank.

And snow today was a bust. I heard rumors of 8” but we barely got a dusting.

Don’t worry we will make you a flagpole stand - good with or without snow.

So far the Thursday moisture and high winds haven’t shown, but expect some mixture and both in several hours.

Meanwhile, sympathies to our northern Freepers in NJ, Pa and NY who are in the process of receiving major inches of white global warming.

Good one!

I am just a plain “old” chicken...actually just visit family there several times a year. I don't qualify as a snow bird. I have a different migration pattern. I am there Christmas, Easter time, and to cover for grandson's summer vacation.

He is getting older and may want to stay alone soon...Boo Hoo.

LOL. Yeah, it stinks to see even the grandchildren grow up. Gets one to thinking they are into the “senior citizen” category. Good on you girl. Wish I could get even one trip to stand with the patriots at WRMC.

You get up there and I’ll get there too! March 15, August 28 and about Sept 12 are all big rallies this year, I think.

Yes, I am a real “senior” and proud of it! LOL
