Just saw it and replied.

I saw the radar last night and it looked like you were getting a good amount of rain. Almost 3 inches is great!

No rain here yet but we have a decent shot at some the next two days .... they SAY. We’ll believe it when we see it.

Thanks, rlmorel, for sharing the remembering.

Mr Tonkin...standing the radio watch every Thursday.
He was so proud to serve his country again after 9-11.

I too am an official member of the “Tonkin Gulf Yacht Club”, USS Dennis J Buckley DD-808 1972! Was aware of the Yacht Club even before I joined FreeRepublic back in 1998!

I can sympathize with that!

Wouldn’t it be great if we were like Samantha Stevens and could teleport with a twitch of the nose? LOL

These are wonderful pix you’ve been posting, Kathy.
I hadn’t seen them before and I’d say many others hadn’t either.
