  1. The Date Pt 1

    Ruth, since arriving at Grand Forks AFB, had been attending Calvary Baptist Church a mile from the base in nearby (is-that-a-town(?) Emerado ND.
    While there she is a part of the Singles group where she has struck up a friendship with a lady named Vanessa. She is slightly older then Ruth and a more unlikely military lady I rarely met.

  2. Peanut Butter Ideals

    Monday nights from 7-10 p.m. are probably not the most conducive to the study of Ethics.
