Late? No worries....I just got home from a nice burger joint dinner with lower 48 friends on a tour/cruise.

For years and years and years I have gone there, southern California, for a Thanksgiving 2 week vacation....haven’t had a vacation since my Dad got sick. Youngest son, I’ve known since he was 2 (43 now) and family and friends are here just for the evening and city tour tomorrow, then off for more tour and cruise down the inland passage to Vancouver.

Good evening, Luv...it was a most pleasant couple hours. I am SOOO out of practice just “visiting”, but it was so good to see them again. First time meeting the 6 year old.

Caught up on some great stuff I hadn’t heard.

Hope you had a great weekend.

A very pleasant good Monday morning to everyone at the Canteen and to all our military at home and abroad. Thanks for your service to our country.

I want to thank you for this. I read this almost every week as it reminds me of my father who fought in two wars and was in Vietnam.

I also research each Hero further to find out more about their life.

Good morning, Canteen.

Good morning to our

Military, our Allies, and their families.

Thank you, Star, for preparing the Canteen
for today’s activities.

Just dropping in long enough to salute
Robert E. Galer.

Can't hang around this morning.
It's going to be a hot one and
I need to start my serious walking plan.
I'm finding myself on the computer way too much
now that I am no longer working.
My plan is to pop in, say good morning,
go off to walk, and check back in
when I return.
So, please know that, if I do not answer
your ping right away, I'll get to it before I sign off, for the day.

But please stay right where you are.
Chat up the military or a family member.
No need to fret...you know I'll be back!

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.
