A Curious Encounter

Every day I try to walk between two and three miles. Last Saturday I was rounding the curve that sweeps along the ocean on the southern section of our street when I espied a couple approaching me. I crossed the street, choosing - in this age of strange days - to maintain a healthy distance from the couple. It was, like it usually is, windy, causing me to pull the brim of my Brazilian bush hat down firm. When I encountered the couple, I glanced up. "Good morning," I woman offered.

"Good morning," I replied.

"Hi ya," the man replied.

As I continued, I was immediately struck by the recognition of who the couple was. It was General Mike Flynn and his wife, whom I had heard lived down the street from the house in which we recently rented.

Michael, unfortunately the poor guy got screwed over by the Democrats. He has a great background career. You should get to know him.
