Thank You Bosox1976 (Mike)

Things have been kind of stressful at home lately. The Missouri River is flooding here in SD, and I spent the better part of last week moving friends out of their homes and sandbagging. I also had to move everything out of my basement and spent a couple of days shoring up one of my retaining walls with around 40 tons of sand in the form of 3000 sandbags (see pic below). Then yesterday, a housing development of 56 homes, just a few miles away from me was lost to the flood, impacting three families that I know. Because of everything going on, I haven't had much time to spend on the hobby lately. So...today I come home and my wife says I got a package. I open it up to find a handful of 1971 Topps baseball cards that I needed for my set. I completely forgot that I had sent Mike my wantlist a few weeks ago, but he must have went through a new lot he purchased and found several that I needed and graciously sent them my way. All I can say is THANKS MIKE, you really made my day!

Here's a pic of the weekend's sandbagging project, thanks to the efforts of many friends and family:
