It 's been awhile since I've done a 'surfing' post, but a new grandson in our family and the daily grind of work, and a child still in school, will do that to you, I suppose. 
Today's 'surf' picture was actually taken on our 2003 Hawaiian vacation by my sister and brother-in-law , not by me. I may finally be running out of pictures to post,lol.
While I have been surfing the web myself in the past few days, I've bookmarked posts that I wanted to feature here when I finally had a chance to do so. So there's no particular 'theme' to all this, other than 'places you might want to check out."
I'll begin with Bruce's Deployment to Afghanistan ,because he has his weekly post up, and his pictures are always great! (And not too long ago, Bruce had a picture of Himself featured on DefenseLINK News Photos ,very cool:)
Keeping it in the AOL/J-Land 'family', Christy has a post up about an opportunity
and Unhappily Ever After, another Aol journaler, has important updates
Kat at Yikes! who is now ALSO a fellow
Soldiers Angels member
has a request up for prayers,too.
And Half A World Away, after his post about a retired wrestler who visited the troops, has a post about a loss their unit has suffered. You can check them both out here
(and I'm sure the family, and friends, and fellow soldiers who served with the fallen soldier, would welcome prayers on their behalf,too.)
Half a World Away also directed me to this link, with several pictorials on LSA Anaconda
I've written a lot of letters to soldiers serving at Anaconda! So this was really cool to see, for me :) And by the way, globalsecurity.org has info about the bases in Iraq
Click here: Iraq Facilities
Bear Creek Ledger has an update on the Camp Pendleton 8, which links to a Townhall.com article about them that I was going to pass along.
And lastly, Noble Duty Milblogger Coalition (which used to be just plain 'A Soldiers Perspective") sent me to two Marine combat artist's pages
OK, 'Surf's Up!'
God keep watch over, and bless, our troops.

Hi Kathi,
Just popping in to say hi and to thank you for including my links in your journal. I've received several emails of people thanking me for the help on the 2,996 project and I'm hoping that everyone will be able to find enough info to follow thru with their tributes.
Hugs, Mandy~
I just read some of the Chaplain's blog. Thank you for posting that link. And you are correct. God always brings great good out of any evil - and war can be such a devastating evil. The good? At the very least? Our prayer life has deepened.
Hang in there, darlin!
Leslie K.
