What a great opportunity for you to be in the water with so many other great ships.

After my three years on the Oceans (USS Midway) Flight Deck Supervisor. At times the Ocean and great ships can be inspiring, other times the flight deck could be hell. During a typical year on the Midway 7 men would die from the working environment.

I spent time in many of the far east and enjoyed the opportunity the Navy gave me with travel.

Drove up to Skyline HW#35, and could see that Santa Cruz and the ocean was socked-in with fog. Today with the fog blowing through the mountains at 30 MPH with visibility down to 100 yards.

Still nice to get outside and drive.
