have a real good time tobok, i was there for the first time last year, and i loved it, plan to go back again this summer. i remember now when i was in the seventh grade in a catholic school, the nuns came in one day, and asked us kids if we could donate money to bring bb-59 back to massachusetts. i remember giving some, and so i feel good knowing i helped to bring the battleship back to MA, in 1965.

the lionfish is just beautiful, i loved her too.

would be the nuts to meet up with a couple to subsim members that live close to battleship cove, and tour the ships there, have lunch in the wardroom of the bb,
would be an excellent time.

have fun t
