    Post your self picture! THAT MEANS U RAGGIE!!!

    Re: Post your self picture! You asked for it. Sorry these are huge. Deal with it. This is from last year's Veteran's Day parade. I'm in the back seat, in the black hat. Being surrounded by men in uniform isn't so bad.

    Tent camping in semi-inclement weather?

    Thanks for all the advice, guys! They have taken rain completely out of the forecast for tomorrow although it is only supposed to be 58 for the high. 30% chance of rain Saturday night, low around 43. 50% chance of rain on Sunday but we'd be on our way home anyway. I'm totally down with the cool...

    Getting Married: Any advice?

    I am going to post from the other side of this - I'm the wife! My husband and I will be married 5 years this November 11. As far as the actual wedding goes, when she asks for your opinion - give it to her. I was a pretty low maintenance bride but a lot of women are not. I agree that you don't...
