Had to post & get to my office....

If Solar pops by...special thanks to you guy...and to all your pals that served with you too...

Billy has been my friend for a long time....he couldn't believe I still had pics of him that he had sent me way back then...Now he is semi-retired & gets to play golf...

Michael is still in the military, he is the father of the trick or treaters, now stationed
in North Carolina...he has been to both Iraq &
Afghanistan...his wife is my best friend's niece, who I have known since she was a child...

I posted a picture of my grandson, Gary, who is serving in the Air Force in Wyoming.

Coreen, I posted it and it appeared at first at the top of your Veteran's Day post. Now I can't see it.

Still having problems posting pictures.

Jan, its there, it is now a new post by itself, if you comment at it, you will see it & the veteran's day one I posted is the older one...unless I am wrong only the person
who created a post can add to a particular post....

Coreen,

Thank you honey.!! I, we, all of my friends from childhood that went into the service (12) still get together at least 3-4 times per year...the wives pretend to get a little bored with all the same bs all of the time...but they are the ones to ask about the old times...

We are a varied group....cpl of atty's, cpa's contractors..and a cpl of millionaires...but all are down to earth....or the rest of us will knock them down....

It is just like being a kid all over again....John is my bests friend out of all of them....he is one of those ( like me) that likes to know how things work...and we have long, long arguments about them....lots of fun conversations, that always ends up with a hug and a kiss on the cheek....he is not afraid to tell me that he loves me, or vice-versa....the others don't "have to say it" it is just there.....

I have a new look that is just like your friends in the picture...my go-tee is exactly, I wear a baseball cap all of the time....but no gut......thanks will check in tomorrow.....

Love and light to all the pinks...
