Steamboating colleagues:
Just clicked and read that today is Alan Bates birthday. Congratulations Alan and many more. Hang around as it'll get better and better over the next 30 years.
Cheers,

Dear Alan,

I blame my parents for this.
Then I'm blaming them, too, for the our illustrious shipyard "employes" (quote-unquote) walking off the job and heading up to the Big Bone B&G where they've been celebrating "Alan Bates Day in Rabbit Hash". Ruby's mom's General Store's closed down too.
Anyway... HBD from a deserted RH Shipyard. Clifford was last seen packing a trunk-load of fireworks down to the riverbank where he'll be shooting em off soon as the sun goes down.
