Musings, interesting findings, and just dreams of a middle aged man

  • It’s been a while

    Well, I got to the ship and everything went off course. It’s only taken me a year and a half to get back to this site. I kept paying for it though. So, I guess I’m at least consistent, if nothing else. I’m now half way through my tour on the Nimitz. It has been […]

  • Settling in

    We had our household goods delivered on Tuesday. This new house is much smaller than our last one, so the garage is full of boxes while we sort through everything.

  • Visit to Boston

  • First Post

    This is my first post. I’ve created this website really just to have something to mess around with. I don’t know where I’ll go with it, but I thought I would just use it to share things that I come across or anything that I find interesting. Maybe it’ll turn into something, or it may […]
