Red Nose Day


This past Thursday was Red Nose Day. I found the following info about it: 

The non-profit Comic Relief, which uses comedy to raise money for disadvantaged people, launched Red Nose Day in the United Kingdom in 1988. Since then, the day has raised more than $1 billion globally. 

Red Nose Day launched in the U.S. in 2015 and has since raised $60 million. That money has benefited children and young people in all 50 states, as well as 25 countries.

Coworker Susan bought red noses for everybody. Below is CQ, Les and me trying to imitate a Moogle, a Final Fantasy character.

King Tide Update:  The level was just a bit higher at high tide yesterday. It overflowed only a little. Phew!

I love it too, Les!

K, Aunty. I was trying to find a regular tide picture to show for comparison but couldn't find. I'll take another regular high-tide one when things settle down.

I believe there's more King Tide projected for the summer. Glad no damage. Red Nose sounds like a good charitable org.
