The user can do that themselves.


On the same account or new? I've tried to update mine to capitalize the T in Texas without any luck.

"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

That's the route I took previously and again a few minutes ago. It shows correctly on my profile but fails to translate to post. Oh well.

You’re talking about the location field; texassierra is talking about the OP’s username MikeinNC

So we drove from NC over the weekend, Friday we visited Mrs. Mike's Great Grand ma (92!!) in Spartanburg and then proceeded to the parking lot known as Atlanta.

Stuck in traffic for an hour on 75/85 until we got to the hotel.

Little Tommy was upset because the pool was closed when we finally gt in and got some food.

BTW-Taco Bell sucks!

Saturday we made it to Ruston LA. The only kink was when the large type dog blew chow in the front seat of my truck. He never even gave us a warning, stood up, turned to face the window and yackked!!

Little man was happy as we spent an hour in the pool at that hotel.

Then Sunday we left LA and got into Texas around 1000, then we spent the next few hours driving to Temple.

Got to our apartment (temp housing) and got to take the Tomminator to the pool.
We found an HEB this morning and I was able to put some sugar in the coffee this morning. AHHH

One of Mrs. Mike's co-workers is fostering the large type dog product. Little man cried when we backed out of the driveway and had to leave Rock (the dog).

We go visit the builder after 1300 to pick out interior stuff and paint and what not...clearly the military has this interior decorating down pat, buff bulkheads, gray decks, white overheads....exterior white (unless sent to combat then you get a choice of light or dark haze gray)

Gotta find a bank, insurance guy, get new DL, get new tags, I'm sure a buncha other stuff....

Welcome to Texas!




"I've spoken of the shining city all my political life, but I don't know if I ever quite communicated what I saw when I said it. But in my mind it was a tall proud city built on rocks stronger than oceans, wind-swept, God-blessed, and teeming with people of all kinds living in harmony and peace, a city with free ports that hummed with commerce and creativity, and if there had to be city walls, the walls had doors and the doors were open to anyone with the will and the heart to get here." -- Ronald Reagan, Farewell Address, Jan. 11, 1989
