(behave yourselves, gentlemen) is asking for pictures of Fall in your area. So, here's a few pictures of a Fall at Fort Leavenworth. Specifically, one of the most beautiful Fall seasons we've had here since I lived here. Sadly, it was Fall 2001, right after 9/11. Fort Leavenworth at War (which is bringing a chortle from people with patches on their right shoulder). Here's another nice shot. This year, however, there has been another Fall. A different one. The Fall of an Icon. It died at 031515OCT04, and I'm not sure it... http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2004/10/a_fall_at_fort_leavenworth.html http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2004/10/a_fall_at_fort_leavenworth.html Mon, 04 Oct 2004 15:53:13 -0600 Really beauuuutiful!

I'd rather they get a gun or a tank, or, better yet - both! - to put in front of the Lewis and Clark Center when it get's built. Heck, we can even go joint with an airplane. Something like the first tank into Baghdad would be cool. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2004/10/a_fall_at_fort_leavenworth.html#comment-7324 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2004/10/a_fall_at_fort_leavenworth.html#comment-7324 Tue, 05 Oct 2004 05:50:54 -0600 are you saying that the darn lamp was not supposed to fall over? I thought maybe they were going to replace it with something else and they did it on purpose. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2004/10/a_fall_at_fort_leavenworth.html#comment-7322 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2004/10/a_fall_at_fort_leavenworth.html#comment-7322 Tue, 05 Oct 2004 05:03:03 -0600 been asking for help! ]]> http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2004/10/a_fall_at_fort_leavenworth.html#comment-7320 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2004/10/a_fall_at_fort_leavenworth.html#comment-7320 Mon, 04 Oct 2004 22:50:46 -0600 it was that flyboy you've got on post that did it. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2004/10/a_fall_at_fort_leavenworth.html#comment-7313 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2004/10/a_fall_at_fort_leavenworth.html#comment-7313 Mon, 04 Oct 2004 20:27:49 -0600
