Hi all: F.Y.I: Every Thursday from now through the 17th of December has a Carve-In scheduled here at das Hamonhaus from 3p.m. til 6p.m. Some exceptions do apply; i.e: Thanksgiving, etc. No RSVPs. Are necessary.. …Just come if you wish. That will officially end our season for this year except for any additional time required for the Quail carvers (and me). We look forward to our Winter Sabatical.

*Notice of Final closing of Blogs: “billsusmc.wordpress.com” and “billsmiata.wordpress.com”


 
 
To all Hands:  This is my notice of semi-retirement! At age 70, I find myself too busy with minutia from the past crowding my present and threatening to do so into my future. Namely, I shouldn’t be trying to do justice to running three web-sites, much less three blogs. So, I’m allowing a few magazine subscriptions to lapse, a few club membership renewals to expire and am herewith closing two of my three blogs; www.billsusmc.wordpress.com and www.billsmiata.wordpress.com. Over the years, I’ve amassed a long list of e-mail addresses received from Marines from all over who’ve found my site and have contacted me. Probably, I’ll find future excuses to use that list from time to time. Right now, I’m just pushing back from the paperwork. This blog, “www.hamonhaus.wordpress.com”  will continue for now, as always.  Thanks for the memories,   Semper Fi,  Bill Hamon  ega-avatar

*The Infamous “Sound of Music” Video


Hey, I know you’ve all seen this before, as have I.  However, I just can’t see it often enough. Check it out and see it again here; anytime!  Please scroll down….

 

This video was made in the  Antwerp , Belgium Central (Train) Station on the 23rd of March 2009.

. . . with no warning to the passengers passing through the station, at 08:00 am a recording of Julie Andrews singing ‘Do, Re, Mi’ begins to play on the public address system.

As the bemused passengers watch in amazement, some 200 dancers begin to appear from the crowd and station entrances.

They created this amazing stunt with just two rehearsals!

Enjoy!
