Fatima....that is SO sweet of you. I think she’s doing better. She’s not home yet, but is improving. I am home now. Had to go back to work today....darn it!

You are the one that is beautiful. I wish I could have heard your prayer for her. I am sure that prayers are being answered on her behalf

I know the place well, or at least I did back in 1995-1996. Freshman year, I went to Connecticut College, which is in New London. (Actually, it is two stops before Groton Naval Base on I-95.)
Back at ConnColl, I helped set up the Hillel and our first field trip was to the sub base for a tour of the USS City of Corpus Christi (gotta love the irony), which was arraigned by the Chaplain. Loads of fun and unlike the taller members, I did not hit my head :-)

Good Evening, Dear Ladies!

Just got back home from the campus - what a sloppy mess!

My first snow in three years! I stood outside and let it snow on my face. It was so beautiful! The neighborhood looks like Currier & Ives.

I’m glad I’m home.

[TASMANIANRED]

You can’t keep any body heat when the wind is blowing that fiercely.

[Tamar1973]

I love snow, I just don’t like the cold! LOL!

[Doohickey]

Hey now. I was on Mylanta and our claim to fame wasn't that. It was getting a "piece of the rock" transiting the Straits of Gibraltar inbound to the Med.

That was one snakebit boat...
