Hadn't realised how much I had missed my beloved ocean until I was breathing that salt air again daily. Don't miss the smoke one jot.
Hell there is even a local who's got plans to renovate a WW2 submarine subsea for scrap salvage from wrecks - who wants my input. Not viable I suspect for more reasons that I have room to enumerate. My point being that I am knee deep in mad mariners again. LOL

Hey Lionman! I still have the picture you sent me of you in front of your ship in drydock!
Yeah, I've lived in the mountains for a lot of years now. Sometimes when the salt air blows off the Lake I get a little homesick; but I love these hills too.
Good to hear from you again.
