Boots

 

Good morning.

What a stunning Supermoon. It was a bit obscured by clouds in our neck of the woods, but it was so bright, it backlit them so beautifully that we sat out there for a good 30 minutes just staring.

No, we weren't in Paris. The cameras on our phones take lousy pictures.

I can't remember if it was Steve at All Natural and More or Sixpence at Lo! Imprescindible who recommended the series, Boots, but I watched the first two episodes last night. Truly enjoyable. The way the protagonist's alter ego supports him is really quite good and adds the needed touch of humor.

It's based on Greg Cope White's memoir The Pink Marine

If you get Netflix, give this a watch.

The Marines' boot camp is quite a bit different than the Air Force, though from watching this I can say there is quite a bit of crossover.
