Have been extremely busy with projects around the house.
Mom is merrily planting more bulbs. I’m readying the living room for a new coat of paint and of course there’s basketball.

Finally caught up on the thread in the wee hours. The Byron York podcast with Trump’s legal counsel John Dowd was fascinating. I hope everyone here listens to it. A few nuggets that stood out:

Russia was actively trying to infiltrate the Trump Campaign and COULD NOT.
Rosenstein appointed the Special Council on his own. Trump, Sessions and Rosenstein’s chief of staff were in a meeting together when they found out. Not one soul knew beforehand.
Rosenstein coward when confronted and asked if he was going to be fired.
Trump, his campaign and his company more than fully cooperated.
Mueller was finished with the collusion and obstruction case in December of 2017. But refused to issue a report which was in breach of his oral agreement with President’s council.
Many more Revelations in the podcast. https://ricochet.com/podcast/byron-york-show/the-man-who-defended-trump/?platform=hootsuite

Good morning Captain. Finally caught up here and saw you checked in. It won't be long before you're back on the lake bringing service to strangers. Hope you meet some outstanding characters this year. Send us a "day in the life" memo when you can. I've forgotten what kind of boat and engine you ferry. Hope she holds steady for you.

The word Captain always brings to mind a poem I memorized in school. One of my favorite by Walt Whitman
