Welcome to the online diary of a Central Oregon Grandmother (me) who is busy celebrating the positive portions of her everyday life ... along with her best friend husband (Cary). It is quite an eclectic diary and I try to do my best to incorporate a little bit of history into many of my posts. Your visit to our piece of American Pie is greatly appreciated. This chatty Kathy posts frequently, so coming back to visit often is highly encouraged.

Brighten a Wounded Soilder's Day:
The Red Cross has organized a program for the wounded soldiers at Walter Reed Army Medical Center. If you send a Christmas card to the address below, they will make sure it gets to a soldier who is needing to spend the holidays at that facility.
I made the above cards, and then inserted 4 of my favorite Oregon pictures taken by me inside each envelope. The Red Cross is asking for the cards to get to them by December 7th so they have time to sort and deliver. Here is the link to their website: http://www.wramc.amedd.army.mil/NewsAndEvents/media/resource/Lists/wrarticles/DispForm.aspx?Id=390&
Please send your cards to:
A Recovering American Soldier
Mail for Heroes
P.O. Box 5456
Capital Heights MD 20791-5456
Thank you!
