Veteran's Day Max-Out and (Sniff) Farewell for Awhile, Hintons

Holy Mackerel, I am behind on my posting -

It's Catch Up Time!

I just had to report on our little Veterans Day food adventure.

Many restaurants graciously offer Vets a free meal on their day that honors their service to our country. 

Roger served for 5 1/2 years as an Instructor Pilot in the Air Force during the War in Vietnam, 

and, being the bargain-hunting foodies that we are, we decided to enjoy free food all day.

We had breakfast at Denny's (and were very impressed with their bend-over-backwards kind service 

and delicious breakfast, though they were swamped), 

lunch at Texas Roadhouse . . . 

. . . and dinner at Applebees, with a free Munchie yogurt for dessert.

So fun! (burp!)

There was this pic in Roger's iPhone of this map on the blackboard at our New Testament class, taught by Dean Marriott, which we enjoyed attending this fall.

We also love Wayne Brickey's Institute class on Wednesday nights.

Happy for them, sad for us - 

Kay and Ken left for their mission in Japan in December,

and we met them at Olive Garden for dinner and good wishes.

We were not able to attend their "farewell" at the end of November,

because we were in Hawaii with Roger's mom and family,

so I am glad we got to say goodbye. 

We love these guys, and cannot imagine better missionaries to spread the message of "Good News."

Okay, on to our trip to Ko Olina, Syd's wedding, Holiday Fun at Christmastime, New Year's . . .
