Good morning, Taz...((HUGS))...glad you are safely home.

WOW! What a wave of bad weather. Sure glad no homes were hit by the torn up trees.

Have you managed not to lose any of your garden?

Hope you had a great weekend, and are feeling better each day.

Been a great weekend.

This long process of healing from the surgery seems to be working quite well. The discomfort I experienced over the past few months has subsided. Have an appt with my surgeon on the 19th. I made him a set of my stars & stripes windchimes. He's an AF academy grad and AF officer. My thanks will go to him for #1 saving my life and #2 serving our great country.

Good morning, Canteen.

Good morning to our

Military, our Allies, and their families.

THANK YOU for all you do.

Thank you, Star, for preparing the Canteen for today’s activities.
I remember the story of Sgt. York very well.

DC Metroland weather report

~ Today...Mostly sunny. Highs in the lower 90s. North winds 5 to 10 mph.

~ Tonight...Partly cloudy in the evening...
Then clearing. A slight chance of showers and thunderstorms.
Lows in the lower 70s. Northeast winds 5 to 10 mph...
Becoming southwest after midnight. Chance of rain 20 percent.

I'm back in the office this morning from a crazy weekend.

Power was finally restored yesterday
about 11 a.m.
Heard this morning that parts of norther Virginia are still out.

It's so hot here that I had to keep cranking the a/c up so it would actually turn off.
Feel sorry for those without a/c.

Poor grand-doggy was stressed through it all
- too hot for her and I'm guessing such strange things going on,
which were not part of our daily routine.

I heard a rumor that the firefighters have gotten the CO wildfires under control.
Got to look into that.

Watched a special called Heroes At Home yesterday.
Sears along with some other organizations
was providing some incredible things to help several military families...
new appliances, bedroom furniture, toys for kids, chores (painting, chopping wood, renovations) for those who needed it.
I'm telling you it was Awesome
One guy was so grateful he was hugging everyone...even the camera operator. LOL

This will be a short week for me.
Taking the 5th & 6th off to have long holiday break.
So, I need to make my rounds
before everyone shows up.
But, you stay right where you are. Cause...............I'll be bock!

The FR Canteen is

Come in and sit for a while.
There's always plenty of coffee, tea,
pancakes, conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS

REMEMBER THEM

DEFENDERS OF FREEDOM

FR CANTEEN MISSION STATEMENT

Showing support and boosting the morale of our military and our allied military and the family members of the above. Honoring those who have served before.

Good morning, Beachy!

*HUGS*

Glad to see your power was restored! Luckily, we did not lose power, although many near us did. I shudder to contemplate no A/C in 90+ degree weather!

Good morning, Luv!

*HUGS*

Luckily, we did not lose power as a result of that dangerous storm Friday night! Lots of people near us did. Traffic lights are out and stores are closed due to storm damage all over the D.C/Balto area.

I hope you have a great week and a great Independence Day!

Hiya Beachie!!

Well, I see you fared fairly well through the storm, but still hot, huh?

We have had temps lower than normal, 68-70 over the weekend; I guess "global warming" is regional :-)

I'm going to the local Republican picnic on July 4th where we can celebrate America and talk right-winger stuff, WOO-HOO!

Have a nice long weekend, see ya soon!

Good morning, CMN ((HUGS))

Glad to hear that you were one of the lucky ones. It was no fun let me tell you. But we fared better than some - we did have the generator.

Just hope not to have to do it again anytime soon.
