Eight years, three invasions, and two purple hearts were the result. Renee then came back home and made a commitment of a different sort. His marriage lasting 68 years until her death a few years ago. It should have been no surprise then to the people of st.

One thing about it, keeps me active instead of just sitting around watching tv all day. I hope hes watching us tonight. Hope hes watching us tonight. Amazing. Talk about active. Just chatting after our interview, telling me how he was an avid biker, would drive to marin county and all that, then i found out he only gave it up five years ago at the age of 88.

Foggy again, two mornings in a row with the fog and that will help keep temperatures down. Areas of low clouds in the north bay, east bay, and peninsula, as well. Then by the afternoon hours, well see the fog push back, but with the system we talked about, check out the high clouds that will move across.
