How's the coffee

Coffee is gooooooood. Believe it or not we have a coffee shop here run by locals. We spend most of our free time there with the good company of our tight little group.

That's good to hear.

I haven't been in anything approaching your situation. I was only in the Coast Guard some many years back, and back then all we had to deal with was the cold war. It was never my place to fire a war shot. But I've been remote and unreachable on an icebreaker for some months at a time, and I really hope that they are treating you as well as possible, and you're getting whatever you need.

I suppose it's been said to you before... but if you have something you need that we can provide there are plenty of us here that will try to help if we can.

Thank you for everything. We really mean that. :-)
