Serena came for the weekend to visit. It was really good to see her again, especially since we could hardly even talk to her when she was out to sea. She had some awesome pictures of the barge (especially those she took from the helicopter)and of the explosions. She went with us to the bbq for the volunteers for the Stonewall fish fry on Sat. evening and everyone who asked her what she was doing said she sure had an exciting job and enjoyed listening to her stories. She does miss getting rocked to sleep and requested some rockers on her bed. Also did not understand why her clothes was not washed, pressed and folded each day and was disappointed that there was not a large variety of food laid out for her each day. I told her to take a reality pill. She was told that she has the record for the being out the longest (3 1/2 weeks) and they were a little worried that she might quit, but she is ready to go out again, especially since she doesn't get paid unless she is working and they say that things really slow down in the winter. She wants to make some money while she can.
Larry is waiting to get a sub, but the way it looks he will have to miss out on the morning of opening day of hunting season. The new one is supposed to start on Nov. 5 so keep your fingers crossed.
