Bryan, thank you for your missives. I find them refreshing. I have commenced Atkinson s second contribution to his Revolution Trilogy. I enthusiastically read the first installment. I also read his WWII trilogy which was great in detail. In reading his works I am reminded of the wonderful Civil War trilogy of Bruce Catton, one of the more elegant historical authors. I am delayed in moving through Atkinson’s latest as I am on predator watch over a mama duck and five ducklings who have taken up residence in my suburban LA pool - a duty I never anticipated having. I look forward to more from you.
Maryland blue crabs are superior to all other crabs. Miles River crabs are superior to all other Maryland crabs. You've reminded me I am overdue for a return to the Motherland.
I did not know of crab feasts until 1981, when I was invited to participate in a backyard event hosted by a member of the church choir I'd joined in Glen Burnie. My fellow choristers taught me well. I fell in love with the Maryland blue crab.
Colby is an ass. I am tempted to expand on that, but let's settle for this: I fondly remember the days of John Lehman and Caspar Weinberger.
Israel is an ally. Our nation supports and defends our allies. (Or we did.)
I served with two men who were shipmates serving aboard USS LIBERTY on a very warm, very clear June day in the eastern Mediterranean back in 1967. Their experiences on that day temper my feelings regarding the state of Israel. That's all I can say about that.

Very kind, thank you. Good luck with the ducks!

Always enjoy your posts. A welcomed respite from the dumpster fire we’re living in.
Very kind, thank you.
You sir, are very welcome. Please
keep up the good work.
The crab bit got a good chuckle out of me. Enjoy the upcoming fest and family as you continue to confirm which days are which birthdays.
Also, it's "has". 🙂
