I very much enjoyed your story, Mr Cowface, and I'm happy you and the Mrs. made it home safe and sound.
Welcome aboard, I look forward to other stories you may have. Peace!
Thanks! I am happy to have found a night shift where people stay up at night to chat & post. Usually back on Topix when everyone else were going to sleep... I was just getting wound up. Those were lonely nights. I expect someone to stay awake with me here. That was back when I was working still... now I am retired and I am a night owl. Hang on!
