Members John81 Posted January 19, 2007 Members Share Posted January 19, 2007 It's a cold, but beautifully sunny morning here today! Among other things today, we will be going to Pizza Hut to celebrate Robert E. Lee's birthday. Later tonight we will honour Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson as we watch the movie "Gods and Generals." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
