The girls are always still in bed at least for 3 or so more hours than me.
Les... you sound like Bob... he turns into a pumpkin at 10:00 PM and wakes up at 5:30 every day... I can nearly set a clock by him!
Me... well, I'm go to bed when I'm ready person... sometimes 11:30, sometimes 1:30... if I'm into a good book it might be 3 before I can put it down... but then I sleep until 9:30 or 11:30 most mornings...I usually am awakened by Bob's leaving to go make retirement funds... and am awake an hour or so then, but I don't get out of bed cause I know I can have peace and quiet when he leaves...if the dog allows it...and get back to sleep..

As I recall a tornado hit a nearby town with tragic results. Mother nature at her least favorable.

And then as quickly as the storm had arrived, the wind and rain vanished. Ropelight Gulch was again eerily quite. Our thoughts quickly turned from the mystery of mother nature to the more pressing matter of who killed....

Murder at Ropelight Gulch
Page 125.
Now... the way I heard the story... the winds calmed and the sun returned when Honey blew in....

Yes the memories of RGV area will always remind me of the Cowboy Cadillac I got down here. Yee Haw. Enjoy your day.
Funny you should mention kites. Have a small parafoil and kite onboard and picked up this 6' wingspan today... good for 5 to 20 mph winds. Hello Bryce Canyon - have kites will travel.

We didn't hit the beach but hung around the back bays. Annie had never actually studied a shrimp boat.

Well that's a fine example of one. Maybe Annie should watch Forest Gump.
