Interesting
Spent an interesting day at Carlisle Barracks today. My youngest daughter and I went on Post and took pictures of where we lived and pictures of friends’ houses and things. We went by the house where one of the permanent party people murdered his wife a couple of years ago. He strangled her, put her in a closet, and later that evening threw her in Letort Run. He reported her missing. She was found floating in the run. No one has lived in the house since. Of course, he sits in a military prison now.

Later on, Seminar 13 from the War College met at Rillo's for supper. These people are funny and fun to be around. Too bad they all live so far apart because I could hang with a lot of them. There's the Chaplain and his wife. The Chaplain was born in Ethiopia. His wife is born and bred Texan and a very nice couple.

Then there's a couple from Massachusetts. Both are police people and the wife's grandfather was a former governor of Massachusetts. I love to hear them talk with their accents. They don't just say "idea", they say "ideer" and instead of "Linda", it's "Linder." The husband who used to be a fireman and wound up a police sergeant, told of carrying Hillary Clinton's rain coat and trying to help a humongously large, rather obese and tipsy Ted Kennedy out of a limo. It was a struggle because this guy only weighs around 170 while Kennedy weighed around 300 at the time.

There's a JAG from Portland, Maine (a woman) who is very animated and a male nurse who kept everyone laughing with his singing and stories. Peter is from Sweden and it's always interesting to hear about different cultures and countries. He's good-looking too!

All-in-all, a very nice day.
