That sounds absolutely beautiful and I’m so glad your Dad’s condition is stable. May it continue to be this way for a long time to come.

No, the snow this year has not been typical.
Absolutely no global warming here, but thank God we don’t live in a tornado/hurricane area.

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “The suicide bomb belt lies beside the body of the man shot in Lashkar Gar in Southern Helmand today.

Among the trail of clothes around him is the women’s burqa with which he had disguised himself as he set out, explosives strapped to his chest, towards the police compound that was his target.

“He was shot in the forehead after he ignored warning shots and was killed on the spot,” said Hussain Andiwal, provincial police chief. “When we took off his burqa we found he was a man with a suicide vest tied around his body.””
