Humm, interesting competition. I still have the Galápagos Islands on my bucket list yet to be completed.

Happy Father's Day dad. Wish all the fathers out there well. Men produce and provide and get little credit.

GM all!

My father was a jump instructor stationed in Germany for the U.S. Army during the early days of the Vietnam war when the French were handing it over to the U.S.

I was a cryptological linguist for the U.S.A.F and we ran cadence singing about C-130s and from time to time B-52s "rolling down the strip"!
