I had to look up “puente” for “bridge.” I get these lapses.
I’ll have my dictionary out while reading “Cape Trafalgar,” but hopefully it will help me with verb tenses. One problem I have is that if I ask the choir about a word, Cary tells me one thing and Asuncion says something different, and Edra would say something else again. It’s like asking an American, a Scot, and an Australian about English!
I had to guess myself. Fortunately, despite vodka and coke and my warrant officer’s fish fry, I guessed correctly.
“Capo” had me stumped for a little bit though. Perhaps my time in South America last year was more useful than I thought.
My CWO3’s wife makes some excellent fried halibut, on par with the Leonard catfish. I need her recipe. Also there was baked beans, my favorite flavor, and a bunch of cheesecake and fudge bites.
Can’t get in touch with any of the people I know up at Kodiak. Hopefully they’re all okay.
