Debby Valdez was very impressive! Glad to see her group get some good recognition.

It looks like the pirates smelled Dorothy Luck's money and went for it. She seems like a nice lady.

I'm glad to see Texas get the spotlight. Things are really dark there. Laurie, you're right, Debby Valdez did a great job.

Dorothy Luck is still alive and it's a wonder they didn't get her and just drug her to death.
