Yep, then Sat was OK until 8pm when I had to take my Dad to the Emergency room and we were there until 2am Sun. Fever of 103.1, weak as a baby, not lucid; as an 81 year old you take of those things quick. He’s OK now Flu and drug cocktail prescribed by Urgent care earlier that day fore it were contra-indicated.

Thanks, AZ, for the red, white, and blue tribute.
How was traffic? Got your groceries in? I was going to stop at the store tonight, but I have to drop a check at the post office. I’m NOT doubling back around to hit the store. Wednesday will do. Driving should be interesting.

Great thread, Lauren! (((hugs)))
I didn’t know anything about this sub base. Thanks for your hard work!
Not having any Navy guys in my family, I hardly ever
hear about what goes on in that branch of the service.
