Good morning, dutchess. Isn't it funny how we thought we didn't need to take a *bath* after swimming in the ocean or lake. Hey, that was water - surely we got clean! LOL

I remember family vacations on Padre Island and many "lake" vacations - we stayed in the water practically the whole time!

This is an upbeat thread; I'm not trying to rain on anyone’s parade here.

Just a little tidbit about the devastation in Louisiana, West Jefferson Parish is west of the Mississippi River. I have family there and their house has no damage, but no electricity, lots of debris, no water in the house. East Jefferson Parish is east of the Mississippi River. That is where all the water is up to roof tops. I have family there also. Haven't heard from any of them. All circuits are busy.

If you are a praying person, pray.
