Nothing heard from him Ron!!!

Thanks for letting us know. Hopefully all is OK at the YY plantation.

We could certainly could use some rain here in the Searcy area. We have
only had about a quarter inch of rain in the past two months and it is
extremely dry here. Don't want the lightning, though!!!

If you hear something regarding San's situation please let us know.
