Hang in there.  Hope they start getting better for any of us with to many bad days.  I started thinking about some other bad days I have had recently and yes things could be worse.   I am grateful for the good days and the days I can enjoy the outdoors.

Like I said above.  The Coastie will be processed for discharge.  It's automatic these days when a DUI occurs.
