Aloha, Hawaii...((HUGS))...any visitors this weekend? Any sun?

[BRL]

Thanks for the post. He is one of my favorite people from the last 100 years. Everything he did was right. He defended Billy Mitchell he was against Roosevelt’s socialist policies, he was an enterprising guy. He is one of the few people who i would love to have been able to live his life instead of my own.

[BIGLOOK]

Aloha again Night Owl! ((HUGS))

No visitors today, have to wait till tomorrow. We have a bright sunny day but i have to check the horizon occasionally to figure out how long it'll last.

Been on the phone most of the morning and will be on the phone shortly to find out the rest of the news.

[Kathy in Alaska]

And rounding out the top three....dduck bags the bronze!!
