Please pray for my son. I've just heard he may be having a heart attack. He's been through so much in his life doctors are amazed he's still living. He's at the hospital now and was being transported to the main when I heard. He's the Terry that signed our cards this year. At least they have him where he may get help in time.

I am sending you ALL of my support and well wishes and prayers this very minute!!!!
Can you feel them?

CDR Virtual Vacations presents On this day 2020 (part 1): Up before dawn to join an Albatross Encounter. We were taken in a very small boat 3 miles out from the coast, the guide lobbed a basket of frozen liver over the side, and we waited to see what turned up. We were very fortunate to have someone on board who introduced himself as Colin who appeared to know even more than our guide. Later research revealed Colin to be Dr Colin Miskelly and what he doesn’t know about birds isn’tworth knowing.

and lastly the Cape Petrel.

Top of the pecking order was the Wandering Albatross with the Giant Petrel second. And just when we thought things couldn’t get better Blue Sharks turned up to try to help themselves to the bait.

Good morning all.
After a lot of heavy rain yesterday evening it's dry again today until the next band of rain moves in.
Hope everyone has a good, and warmer Monday.

Yes he did get there quickly so it's up to him and if his body can hold up to another crazy day. I'm glad Heather went ahead and took him in.
He's in the right place and stents sound scary but are quite routine for the docs these days.
Terry has been through a lot and hopefully he will sail through this and make a speedy recovery.
I'm sending healing thoughts for him and although I know how worried you are, I hope you are able to rest and look after yourself too.

In all of my life growing up in Texas, I have never seen snow here like there is today.. over a foot on the ground and still coming down heavily.. it’s crazy!

It's been the longest lasting of all my cars.
The Peugeot 106 before this one was 12 years old when we parted company.
I buy new and keep them until they start costing me big money.
My next car will be a hybrid.
I bought my IROC new in 1988, it's an '89. So I have been driving it for 32 years, put 3 engines in, each faster than the previous one. New tranny, and all the front end stuff, tie rods, ball joints, spindles and etc. I love this car, the easy way it handles, and the quickness that helps avoid accidents. It's beautiful (to me)and I plan on driving this car until I can't

Please pray for my son. I've just heard he may be having a heart attack. He's been through so much in his life doctors are amazed he's still living. He's at the hospital now and was being transported to the main when I heard. He's the Terry that signed our cards this year. At least they have him where he may get help in time.
Oh my! Very scary, Cathie. I really hope it turns out ok.

You should get it wrapped in a different color to mess with local cops since they are used to the color!

I am so sorry to read this Cathy. I hope he pulls through and makes it. I will say a prayer.
