.... along the Wynooche River. All of a sudden, we heard this horrendous combination of screaming, warbling and yodeling from Kurt, who was upstream and out of sight. Gramps told me to run up there and help Kurt, who must have hooked a big fish. When I reached Kurt, he didn't even have his line in the water. When I asked him what was going on, he just looked at me with those piercing eyes and huge grin. He said, "Oh, I'm just trying to thicken my vocal chords so I can scream better!" When I went back to Gramps to tell him, he just grinned and said, "It figures, We'll just let him be!" We can now say, "Thank you, Kurt, for thickening your voc .....

.... even impressed with it. He said the reason that he joined the Air Corps is because the recruiter made the Air Corps sound more interesting that the Navy recruiter. Anyway, Chuck joined the Air Corps as a mechanic. After a year of being a mechanic, the Untied States was short pilots, so they put up a notice to see if anyone wanted to become a pilot. Chuck signed the form; however, it took another year for them to pick him. It was always hard for Chuck to fit in among the other pilots and mechanics. Because he was from West Virginia, he had a strong accent, and a poor education, so he was never given a chance at first. Then, when he first went .....

Baines was a man everyone .....

.... beauty that Christopher was taken by when he explored the islands he came upon due east of Juana. Of the Juana group, one island was Cuba, and of the new group lie Haiti and the Dominican Republic. Christopher was astounded to see that the vegetation was in bloom all year. Though I think this was for reasons greater than just their aesthetic beauty. I'm sure he was conjuring up great plans, for in the back of his mind he was probably thinking about the shortage of lumber back home. This abundance would take care of that problem. He could also bring back the fruits and whatever else he fancied to impress his majesties of Spain with. It just s .....
