Traded-in one bug for another, eh Jim? [cool]

We're scheduled to receive our 1st round next month - on our anniversary!  We're planning to list ourselves somewhere else, in hopes of receiving a nicer gift! [mad]

On the other hand, "Shortcake" - Thank you very much for your very thoughtful Valentines Day card!  Please thank Bobby, too, although I'm pretty sure he had nothing to do with picking out that cute llama on the cover with hearts & flowers floating around it. [thumb]

I'll squeeze-in 1 b-day, then put the next item in a separate window ...

H a p p y  B i r t h d a y wishes go out to Bob Bradford, for Feb. 9th!  

Bob - We hope you had a great one and all are healthy at your home.  If you're lurking out there, check-in sometime and say howdy.  Best wishes and stay safe!

Geneva and I had our first round of shots yesterday. Process went well. Sore arms today kind of like a Flu shot.

Jack that is great news!  Let's face it, some cities/counties are better organized, and then there's Dallas!!  What a fiasco last week.  Got my 1st shot Tue in Allen and Don got his last week at Fair Park.  It's great to know so many people are able to get it.

Glynda and I just returned from the Garland vaccine event. Our appointment was for 9-11. We arrived shortly after 9, sped right through the cop directed maze and waited about two minutes for the guy in front of us to get over the speed-bump. Got our shots, cards and directions. Went to the parking lot for the mandated 15 minute wait to see if we would react. We got the OK and were waved out. Quick, easy and almost painless. Friendly, well trained people did a great job. In 4 weeks we'll do it all again. YEA!! Thanks to the ex-president and the Governor.

I just received a message from Mario saying they have a new address. I'll add he and Barbara to my list of updates if anyone needs them.

For those of you addressing Valentine's cards, it dawned on me there are 5 people that I know moved and changed address after 2016.  Which means their address in Dir is wrong.  If you need their address and don't already have it, send me Em and I'll provide the list.

Hi Paul - Well, I didn't want to pester you & some of the others, but maybe you'll start something and kick'em in gear.

E-mail is preferred, but if it's easier to snap it from your smart phone and send it, that's OK.  My cell# is in the 50th reunion directory, or I can e-mail it to you directly. 

Anyone else out there with a blank spot in the slide-show, feel free to follow suit.  I'll return a copy of your full slide with both photos included.  Thanks! [thumb]

If you want to view Alvin's slide w/o having to sit thru the entire set, start the video, mouse over the timer bar at the bottom, click & drag the red ball to minute 13:40, release, and let it continue.  You can also click & drag it backward or stop the video on his slide.

I know the feeling Larry, I'm on 4 different county site wait lists plus 2 different City wait lists.  I'm really hoping this week will be my lucky week!

Thank you Don and Sandy for the info.  Alvin had tragedy in his life.  He was married to a young lady who once went to SOC, but I think moved before graduating.  Her name was Linda McCollough (sp?) who passed away at the age of 55.  I had no idea that he had served in the US Navy that long.  Thanks again for the info, and stay safe.  I am now registered in three places in Dallas County, have not heard from any of them yet.  It cannot be soon enough for me.

I'm very sorry to hear the sad new of Alvin Roger's passing and share in with you all in sending my sincere condolences to Diane and the family. 

Sandy alerted me by e-mail, since I'm not on FB.  I can confirm that Alvin was a Navy vet of approx 13 yrs, based on this entry in our SOC '66 Vets' Roster:
