It’s Monday, I Feel Like A Tick, And Relaxing. How About A Can Of Paint.
The other day we talked about Chris Craft Blue, and boom, today on ebay we have an old rattle can of blue Spray paint. Of course who knows if the paint is any good, but the paper wrap is kinda nice, so there is that for the shef of old stuff you have in your man cave/barn/garage/Railway.
That’s it???!!!
You really are on vacation.
Thats it! Poof, and back to eating and sleeping. Oh and rebuilding a back yard.
Uh oh, tmro there will be a back yard story, or a sore back story, or a story about a story or a store…
it’s time for you to get the lead out of your bottom and get back to writing stories, no more vacation!!!!
When you get done with the backyard project? Maybe hit the WWII museum and cover the Higgins PT boat resto if you can. I assume it’s there. On my bucket list along with U505 in Chicago Science annd Industry Museum and a ride on a Liberty ship in Cali with steam power (I think)? Not sure if that last one is still available and I’ll live that long.
That would be the S S Jeremiah O’Brien in SF. Yes, the original steam engine.

It has amazing stories! My dad was on a Liberty Ship in WW2, they were building them every eleven days. Looking at their latest fund raising request, I am here to encourage all of you to sign up to receive a mailing once in a while, and send them money! They get underway twice a year, and you can charter the ship. Boat ride! Let’s all the WB folks pool our $ and go for a boat ride!
Floyd, its the Lane Victory in San Pedro. They still take it out once or twice a year as far as I know.
That would be S S Jeremiah O’Brien in San Francisco, the last operational Liberty Ship in the world. Yes, it has the original steam engine in it! It goes out on Memorial Day, and for Fleet week, or you can charter it. Asking all of you to donate $$$ to them, they are non-profit, and 150 volunteers have contributed over 200,000 hours to keep her steaming!
Thank you both for that info. Hope to get there for a trip soon
Take a lesson from NBC. A re run will work.
I need a full boat picture today;
That’s a good one!
The Minwax poly can looks like a stranger in there.
