Hi guys. It's Veteran's day again. Time
fly's so fast for me anymore. So, "Happy- Veteran's-Day". May we all see many more. And, as the kids today like to say, "Thanks for your service". I get the feeling, people say this because we went, and they didn't have too. What say you all? Drifter... (Mike)... |

The one thing I'm looking forward to is heading a few miles over to the lake, possibly going out on the pier if the weather is ok, and paying my respects to Paul Lambers, Congressional Medal of Honor Recipient, who was lost off the pier December 1, 1970. His body was never recovered. |

Had first snow last week; too warm to lay then, cooler this week. Watch that wind don't blow you off the pier. But, being Navy, I'm sure your legs are better in the wind than I would be. Best of the day to you. Drifter... |

As far as the weather goes, right now it's about 57 degrees, and the cold front is approaching. |

As far as the weather goes, right now it's about 57 degrees, and the cold front is approaching. Currently, 65 degrees inside my flower box on doggy's front porch. The weather people on TV say it is going to get COLD (When it's Springtime in the Rockies, it's 40 below) in The Great Land Mass. http://foldsofhonor.org Veterans Day: Honoring All Who Served With Folds Of Honor |

That storm is on the way. Temp will be dropping all day and over night. The weather people are already jumping up and down about it. I guess this will be the first real storm of the season. Little early for my taste. But, and this is for Larry, I got a new jeep this last July. Always wanted one just never got around to shopping for one. My older brother always had a jeep around, for the winter mostly. I picked up a 2014 Patriot. Surprise, I love it. Lots of fun. And it won't beat me to death like my brothers. So, I guess I'm ready for winter. Drifter... |

It is rusty and slap worn out, it was like that when I bought it. The elderly guy (in Edwards, The Great Land Mass, little town of Edwards is 13 miles West of doggy's couch) I bought it from said it has two burnt valves. I had to use one of my Come A Longs and some old rusty lenghts of chain to get my Jeep from my driveway to doggy's back yard. The Jeep's engine isn't seized up. Maybe next Spring I will try to get the engine running. Flat Fenders Forever! http://thecj2apage.com |

It's also an acknowledgement that many folks went without a choice, to fight a war designed by crazy policy masters like Henry Kissinger. A war that was lost and might had been unwinnable from the start. Nobody should have to go halfway around the world to fight some war, especialy one as hare-brained as Nam. I also say it to the folks my age and younger who served in Iraq and Afghanistan. Turns out we lost Iraq as ISIL (AKA the Free Syrian Army once they drive onver to Iraq) has practically taken the whole place over already. Afghanistan seems poised to be next. |
