@manhattanmaker Been there but only 1 sister. Can’t imagine 3! Sympathies.

[Lynette @RetWM]

@braxton_mccoy And years from now she will be grateful that you loved her enough to do that!

@TwoRulesOfWar @ITshortking2 For you and @ITshortking2 , I pray that time will bring light to the darkness and hope where it has waned.

@viking_boer That gets you a follow!

@0hour1 Definitely worth a follow!

There are a lot of amazing things to see in DC. As a retired Marine, I highly recommend the Tuesday parade at the Marine War Memorial (aka Iwo Jima Memorial) and the Friday night parade at the Marine Barracks, 8th & I Street. If you ever experience echo Taps from the ramparts at 8th & I, it will stay with you forever.

@braxton_mccoy @ShawnRyan762 It’s in the newspaper here in Casper, WY almost every day lately. Imminent domain, water issues, etc. There might be fewer people to complain here but, thankfully, some of them are very loud!

@CynicalPublius Fabulous!

@TwoRulesOfWar When you show up at their door in uniform and there’s a chaplain with you, they know instantly. Been there, done that. Not fun. Even worse when it’s a mid-air in the Persian Gulf and there’s no bodies to recover. Makes closure that much harder.

@CynicalPublius The late, great warfighter John Ripley. USMC, says “hold my beer”.

@GeorgeRoush Just fabulous!

@ZeekArkham Girl Dad’s are a special breed. The memories you’re making with your daughters will last forever. Ask me how I know (I’m old and he’s been gone awhile.)

@DaleStarkA10 Gorgeous morning on the ranch!

[Lynette @RetWM]

@CynicalPublius So glad you’re sticking around this chaotic, sometimes insane corner of the world. I look forward to reading your posts as they’re a well thought out, breath of fresh air in a too-often shallow discussion of world events and issues.

@infantrydort Had mine done in November. Minor discomfort—major vision correction! So worth it. Good luck.

@CAgovernor He should return that money only after you return all the zillions of federal dollars wasted by California on a train line that hasn’t happened.

@ThrillaRilla369 Always, no matter how heartbreaking.
