Army Basic at Ft Leonard Wood, we ran daily in combat boots to. Though they did issue us some really awful "Athletic Shoes". They had really flimsy soles, but with cleats as big as sewing thimbles. And you could feel those huge things with every step. I don't remember ever using them for anything.

I took my basic at Fort Leonard Wood in 1959. Remember going to the rifle range with a M-1 Garand and no eye or ear protection. We ran in combat boots. As long as you kept your mouth shut and did what they told you to do, basic training was not a problem.
You need to learn to like all the little everday things like a sip of good whiskey, a soft bed, a glass of buttermilk,  and a feisty old gentleman like myself

Uncle did in 64 for the National Guard, Fort Lost in the Woods.

Friend of my cuzzin had some problem with a drill Sargent and claimed tongue in cheek that he had to rake the whole thing.😳

Morning all.

Currently sitting in a little hotel in Arcata, Ca. Enjoying my last few days as a civilian. Hopefully get to a beach today, then see some redwoods.

Got back from PT, big improvement even since yesterday.

Tuesday is the plan, Gopher Grease will bring Riley home, said he was going to wash and wax him first.  They said they hate to give him up but he needs to get back with us.

Ain't got all the details worked out but Lexie is going to stay with us till she's out of school most likely, at 14 what she wants along that line within reason is allowed,  not sure if her dad is going to fight it but mom ain't,  my oldest is owned some favors from a legal aid group  she said she'd call in if needed.

Hadn't planned on raising a teenager again but can't refuse,  ex wife has a daughter about the same age and they are including Lexie in things, ex mother in law is also.

Nothing of consequence or stash dwindling at the Toy store ...which is good cause the gun show last week kind of depleted the sock drawer....

Lunch was one of our favored haunts .... China Buffet & sushi bar ...
Front passed through and  temps will 40 degrees cooler that todays high of 82  tomorrow.

Del good to see you are on track  :)

Coldest morning in several weeks now-

Joint effort we cleaned the chicken house yesterday- even with a mask I got too much dust in my lungs
That and I must have slept in a knot last night- my back is killing me this morning.

Oh well back to the day.
