Typhoon here to remind everyone that Memorial Day 2013 is not just a holiday.
So feel free to get out and enjoy your day, like we did with this view from Frying Pan Mountain yesterday.
But please take a few moments to say thank you to those who made the ultimate sacrifice to protect our freedom to enjoy our days.

A Shark Attacked My Best Friend
June 20, 2025 - In honor of the 50th anniversary of the theatrical debut of the movie Jaws, the film that was the inspiration for these events, D. K. Wall recorded the story in audio and video. The original story was posted on October 9, 2022.
A shark attacked my best friend when I was 11. His screams were awful. The silence that followed was worse. I was alone in the ocean.
Enjoy it your way
