Good morning, Everyone.

Good morning to our

military, our allies, and their families

Thank you, Lauren, for preparing the Canteen for today’s activities.
SC is a nice, long drive from here, so
I think I'll take the limo.
Anyone need a ride?

DC Metroland Weather

~ Today...Partly sunny.
Patchy fog this morning.
A slight chance of showers this morning...
Then scattered showers and thunderstorms this afternoon.
Highs in the mid 80s. East winds around 5 mph.
Chance of rain 40 percent.

~ Tonight...Mostly cloudy
with a chance of showers and thunderstorms.

WOW, I was quite surprised yesterday afternoon
when a nice, cool breeze blew in.
A welcome break from the humidity.
Gotta go for my morning walk.
I'll be back later to say howdy.
Grab a cup of joe or tasty tea.
Keep our military, our allies, and their families company.

The FR Canteen is ALWAYS

Come on in and sit for a while.
There's always plenty of coffee, tea,

silliness,
and plain old BS

One reason why I joined the Navy was the statement from my brother-in-law, who had served in the Marines, that I wouldn’t make it through Parris Island. I was 5’6” and 109 lbs when I enlisted.

And I grew up 10 miles from Cherry Point (where my parents worked) and 50 miles from Camp LeJeune. Didn’t care for Marines much.

After 20 years in the Navy I gained an immense respect for the United States Marine Corps.

Good morning, Beachy!

*HUGS*

A limo, huh? The only way to go to Parris Island is on a government bus with a snarling DI to act as your tour guide. :)

Hope you have a great Tuesday!
