Toured the Carl Vinson about 12 years back.
It was one of the best and proudest days of my life.

Good evening, Mac...*HUGS*...how was commuting today?

I’m listening to the radio announcing accidents all over town. So far none on my route home. Supposed to get a little snow...maybe 1-3 inches. We will see...they haven’t been right for a while.

Good commutes today, thanks - we were close to 60 degrees today - still in the high 40's at this hour.

Good evening, Connie, and thank you for the tributes to our troops. *HUGS*

How was your Monday after your cool weekend?

We are supposed to get some snow...not much, maybe 1-3 inches. I put the recycle barrel in the garage before I left because the ice on it was so thick and I couldn’t beat enough off with a stick to get the lid open.
