WELCOME TO THE

Good morning, Everyone.

Military, our Allies, and their families.

Thank you, Ma, for preparing the Canteen for today's activities

This must be another reason they take young guys. LOL

A pinch of this...a dash of that...

A pea jacket is actually a "jacket jacket."
The "pea" part of its name is from the Dutch word pij,
which is a sailor's garment.

Despite their finickiness,
an average cat consumes about 127,750 calories a year,
nearly 28 times their own weight in food
and the same amount again in liquids.
In case you were wondering,
cats cannot survive on a vegetarian diet.

A dog's nose has over 200 scent receiving cells.

A day on the planet Mercury
is twice as long as its year.
Mercury rotates very slowly
but revolves around the Sun in slightly less than 88 days.

I've got to make my rounds and then get to work.
Today is my last work day for the next 6 days.
So I have lots to do before leaving today.
Not to worry, I'll be back and I have the thread to post tonight
and can stay a little later than norm.
Please stay.
Keep the troops entertained and the Canteen clean...
Cause...if you don't...I'll tell Ma!

Come in and sit for a while.

There's always plenty of coffee, tea,
pancakes, conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS

PLEASE 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, dear ((HUGS))

Don't know what's up...so slow on this end.
I'd hit the post button - rapid fire - but it would post once. UGH!
I don't have time for this as I have lots to do today.
(p.s. it was 70 out when I got to work)

USCGC Eagle (WIX 327) Love it!!

I was on board the Eagle a long time ago. Must've been around the Bicentennial. It was docked at the South Street Seaport. I think the reason it remains in my mind is because we (and many others) were stuck under a canopy on deck for what seemed to be an hour or so during a major downpour, and there was just no place else to run to for shelter on the pier.

Howdy, EGC! (((hugs)))

It’s going well for a work morning. Just having my tea and
roll before having to get ready to head ‘em up!

Hope you and Bo have a great day....maybe a trip to the lake?
Hope his poor nose is better today!
