I made meatloaf because we kept talking about it. It's amazing. Although I had to cook it in a cast iron dutch oven because I don't have loaf pans.
Sounds like a fair trade. Could you toss in some chili too?

Mine ended about 3 days ago. Should have gotten the last survey and told to uninstall it.

I'm curious how exactly that's defined because my totally uneducated guess would've placed that happening in history way earlier lol.

These are pretty awesome. I wonder how often they're in use? I worked for the VA for a little while and wished they'd get on the mobile healthcare truck bandwagon. Not as impressive as a ship but in rural areas it can be a challenge to get to a center.
Well, without looking it up, I think the colonial period started about the mid 1600s. Britain, France, Spain, and the Dutch (the Dutch were a big deal for quite a while). Most of those were just out to "conquer" and seek gold. The Brits, on the other hand, were looking to create, then expand, markets, as in "mercantile." Thus the 13 colonies. Our first real export to anywhere, including Britain was, of all things, tobacco. So Britain fought a long war over here (the French and Indian War), felt she had first say on what went on over here, pushed a bit too far, and voila, we revolted. If I recall correctly, James Otis started it all around 1760. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Otis_Jr.

So I live in the rural of all rurals. The nearest town is 55 miles distant, the nearest VA clinic is 65 miles away, and the nearest VA hospital is 118 miles away, which is a real -- pardon me -- a real bitch. The VA's healthcare is great, for the most part, but their psych care ( which I do desperately need ) leaves much to be desired. Still, I am luckier than many an American, I guess. And you are spot on about the mobile healthcare: I would kill for that.

And I admire, and greatly appreciate, your caring about our history. :)

Mobile healthcare would be amazing for the VA. My partner and I are moving in 6 months and as we searched for places right on the top of the list was a nearby VA hospital. In our case... it'll be about an hour away. Which was better than I had anticipated. Although they aren't doing mobile... I do appreciate that they are doing more things over the web so that we can ask our doctor questions and stuff without having to come in for appointments.

A great American Hero. Astronaut, Senator and much else. A fine 95 years.
Yes. It make me want to cry. What a great era. What a brave, brave guy. And I think it unfortunate that many on this forum have no idea who he was or what he did. I'm not blaming anyone; it's just what it is, I guess. :(
