Good evening connie...and (HUGS) bac’at’cha. Good to see you as well!

Things are well on the farm. We did a bit of ocean fishing yesterday...a few miles out for half the day, got our limit...had a great fish lunch today...yummmmmmmy. Our tanker called yesterday just as we were docking so I got to have a ‘specilly good b’day greeting from him. He’s doing well and all back in the groove. Turns out that two others on the boat have family deployed, one in Afghanistan and one in Iraq. They all smiled when I told them who called and then told me of their sons being deployed...we shared a moment of understanding silence. Small town USA, you gotta love it.
