During my Tea Party days, I moderated a debate among office seekers for a county position. One lady running was a black lady who had raised her son as a single mother, and he was now at Parris Island at boot camp. She was a formidable figure and had boned up on the issues. I told her I suspected her son had told the DI that boot camp was a vacation compared to life with Mama. She laughed uproariously and told me the DI had spent some time with her asking for training tips.
Sounds like a perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon, should make that drive to experience a concert. Thanks for the info!
And what a great story, appreciate you sharing it!
