Just finished watching "The Forgiven", a story of Desmond Tutu and the Truth and Reconciliation
Commission (TRC). Well worth watching.

Whoops - forgot to mention it's on Amazon Prime. Here's a review:

The 10 part Ken Burns Vietnam show is on Netflix now. That is a good
binge show. You might even recognize some of the stuff although they
do seem to be talking more about the Marines in the first few shows I
have seen.

I have to admit that I've never enjoyed a Vietnam documentary of any kind. But, based on your
recommendation, I'll give it a shot. Most of today is supposed to be rainy anyway, and there's no
golf to watch. Besides, Tiger really disappointed me last weekend.

I had put off some outdoor projects thinking this week would be a
washout.

Last week the weather people were working overtime issuing dire warnings
of severe thunderstorms, torrential rains, flash flooding and all sorts
of calamities in our area starting last Saturday night and lasting for
most of this week.

I think I heard one, distant soft roll of thunder Saturday morning and
we had a few sprinkles that didn't even wet the roadways. Yesterday was
sunny but humid with a few clouds but no rain. Looks like today will be
similar.

Maybe if I go out and start my projects the rain will quickly begin.
We need some rain around here. Lawns are drying up and running
sprinklers doesn't help ... just a waste of water.

Just the opposite here... 5 to 6 inches of rain the last few days, and
more scheduled for this week. On Sunday alone, Dulles Airport got 5
inches of rain. Some areas are really saturated, and I've seen news vids
of roads flooding over in low spots six feet deep. Here's a vid of the
Occoquan River adjacent to I-95 south of the DC Metro area...Normally,
it is a placid river...

Does Burns show when the command of Walter Kurtz was terminated?

We had over 6" here on Saturday. Yesterday morning loud thunder and lots of rain. Off and on
throughout the day. Today's forecast is 100% chance of thunderstorms throughout the day. I've got a
new bug deflector for the truck. Hopefully it'll dry up long enough to install it.

From the comments by you and your little buddy, Donna, "Apocalypse Now" is where you got your
knowledge of Vietnam.

Was he your commander during your virtual tour over there?

Pretty.
The whole front of my camper is covered with bugs. It'll probably
take an hour to clean up. Today we do the beartooth highway.
We've done it before but this time we have a dashcam.
