That must have been an interesting place to visit, Sue. I have often wanted to visit Guam.

2022-09-20 23:26:14 +0000 UTCI experienced two direct-hit typhoons when I lived on Guam as a girl (one of them, "Karen," was a hundred-year storm). In fact, the base had typhoon stages, 1 through 4, with 1 being "YOU ARE IN A TYPHOON!," and we never dropped below Stage 3 ("a typhoon is within 48 hours away") so I'm quite used to finessing going out "in a typhoon"! LOL! HOWEVER, we did have about a dozen deaths during Karen. It was really a doozy. My Navy pilot dad had to fly planes to safety, and he said that returning to the island was the scariest thing he'd ever experienced because this beautiful emerald little dot in the sea had been scoured clean, and was just a brown rock. All he could think of was his family. (It did, however, uncover a Japanese Zero that had lain hidden in the jungle since the war! Very interesting!)
