Subject: Re: 11 OCTOBER 21 by GRIS on 2021/10/11 13:00:40 A FEW YEARS BACK THE EXACT COPY OF LA NINIA CAME UP THE ARKANSAS TO THREE FORKS. BUILT IN BRAZIL WITH SAME TECHNIQUES AS THE ORIGINAL, SHE MADE A MAJOR IMPRESSION ON ME. SHE WAS TINY! MY PICKUP TRUCK WOULD NOT HAVE FIT ON HER DECK. IT'S HARD TO IMAGINE CROSSING THE ATLANTIC IN SUCH A CRAFT. SAILORS IN THOSE DAYS REALLY HAD BALLS. SHE LATER RETURNED WITH A REPLICA OF LA PINTA, A LITTLE LARGER, NOT AS AUTHENTIC, BUT STILL SMALL. IT WAS DISAPPOINTING NOT TO BE ALLOWED BELOW ON LA NINIA, I WANTED TO SEE THE CARPENTRY. CLOUDY AND 60 DEGREES THIS MORNING, STORMS LAST NIGHT DIDN'T AMOUNT TO MUCH HERE. THERE WAS CONSIDERABLE DAMAGE IN COWETA, UP BY TULSA AND TORNADOES REPORTED IN CENTRAL OK. IT'S SUPPOSED TO CLEAR OFF TODAY AND RAIN RETURN TUESDAY NIGHT. AND IN CLOUD-CUCKOO LAND: THE OMNISCIENT DR FOOCHY, DARLING OF THE MEDIA, HAS APPROVED HALLOWEEN. ISN’T THAT JUST WONDERFUL? |
