I've wondered about @Rhodie Ranch .
We are almost to the holiday season; some would say that we are already there.
How are things looking at the food bank? Gearing Up?

Reading a little about Columbus and his voyages this morning.
Seemed like quite a mess. I didn't know/remember that they lost one of those 3 ships on the first trip and he nearly lost track of a second one. Christopher was quite upset and may have had reason to believe that the ship's captain was insubordinate.
They left 39 members of the expedition behind in the Caribbean and, returning a year later found that they had been lost to a native attack. This was 120 years before the British misfortunes in Virginia and the Roanoke settlement.
Anyway, Columbus and crew were there right at this time of the year. Luckily, they weren't faced with a Hurricane Melissa smashing its way through the islands.
