Well folks I'm out of here!! I'll leave Wednesday and be at home on Friday! Thank you all for sharing your time and ideas with me and helping to keep me going. I'll be off the board for 3 weeks or so but I'm sure you all won't even notice as you keep this Montanan very busy. Thank you again and after I get back to the world and adjust I'll get back into cyberspace. Take care and God bless you all Gary |

Just don't shoot your liberal neighbor when the idiot goes out at three in the morning to play basketball with his dog like I nearly did after return from RVN. Gotta numb those reactions a bit now. |

Hi Gary, I've heard a lot bout you and read a lot of your words. Countrymouse introduced me to this world here about which my 17 yr old daughter said "Careful, Mom. It'll eat your life.." Well it is rather addictive, especially with so many interesting folks like you to share with. I'm sure you will have a very full life once you get back with those kids and that sweetheart of yours. I don't expect to hear from you for a good long while. So thanks a lot for everything and I pray that you and yours are blessed every minute 'til we do 'meet' again. Swimmer |

I'm gonna feel kinda nekkid(unarmed) now that you aint gonna be over there .. I'm well aware that you have many fine, well trained, competant replacements that can fill your shoes, but, it just aint YOU there.. I hope this dont come out wrong or look slight, but you not bein there is kinda like somebody else takin your best dog huntin.. You might have to be a Redneck to understand the full impact of that tho.. I'm gonna trust God to send the best replacement that He can and give him the power to accomplish the impossible.. No doubt that he will have some huge shoes to fill and an even larger shadow to cover.. Your time to eat, drink, and be merry is at hand.. ENJOY !! But be forever ready cause we will always need you.. Safe Travels and Welcome Home.. |

Be careful. Since the Dims have announced their intent to run as fast and as far as possible, the danger level for you guys has increased. |

Gary safe trip home and THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for your service . Take all the time you need once you get home before you join us back here, I'm sure everyone will understand I agree that a welcome home party to end ALL parties is called for, who ever sets it up just let us all know so we can be there. There's no place like home.
