"Priceless"....and more places to 'Surf'

Price of Post Card of one of the area's places of beauty.....40 cents

Price of Post Card Stamp .........24 cents

Getting a Thank You card from a Soldier that says "Thanks for sending me a little bit of 'home'.................PRICELESS!

And,because I "have no life" as my sons so nicely phrase it,lol, here are some more places to go 'surfing' on the Internet.

First up, two calls for videos from soldiers. One of them was posted on Blackfive  Click here: BLACKFIVE: MilBlog TV      and the other was information from a fellow Soldiers Angel member:

Military Channel Project- Description

Are you currently in a war zone fighting for our country? Or do you have a loved one who is stationed overseas, on the front lines? We want to know what life in the military is like. MY WAR VIDEOS, a new program from the Military Channel, will share personal perspectives on day-to-day life in a war zone. We want to feature video messages, home movies, letters, and photos sent home by you, the soldiers.

This program is designed to tell soldier's stories in their own words up front and personal no spin, and no political agenda. If you'd like to participate in this program, or you know someone that would, we'd like to hear from you as soon as possible, please note our contact information, below:
MY WAR VIDEOS will premiere on the Military Channel on Memorial Day, 2006.
Send your ideas and questions to mywarvideos@lmnotv.com.
NOTE: When sending email, video or pictures, we'd like to know your: Name, Rank, Military Affiliation, U.S. Base, Current Base, Email Address, and a family contact in the U.S.

(They got the info from P.J.DeGross, who is a stellar troop supporter in Nevada, and you can check out her site at   

 
And this is awesome....two soldiers are going to start a hike on the Appalachian Trail on July 16,2006, to raise money and awareness for disabled veterans. 
 
Then, I found another Troop Support site  index
 
And,because I always seem to be a day late and a dollar short:) I came late across this blog on the Washington Post site  
 
And,from going here  
 
I ended up here  
which is totally awesome, and if you check out the 'Motivation' video, that alone was worth the trip by there!
 
Came across another troop supporter, and am adding her to the blogroll  
 
One more place you might want to surf? JP has welcomed a new member to his family over at Milblogging.com  www.milblogging.com   if you want to stop by and congratulate him on the birth of their child:)
 
And, postcards like the above can be found at www.postcardstop.com    
 
Enjoy your weekend!
