You’re What?

You’re What? A very good friend of mine who usually has a comment about my posts has been strangely silent since my last one.  He and his wife came to visit Cindy and I on our boat yesterday and I found out why.  I was quite surprised when he said that my last Letter from Roscoe left him in a state where he “Just didn’t know what to say.”  A condition that is quite unusual for this man.  (Chuckle, chuckle)…
