Chuckster, what an adventure! That is a retirement inspiration. I’ve only been to HI once and it was by water on a guided missile frigate. Your video jogged many memories; finishing “At Dawn We Slept” the night before pulling into Pearl Harbor, visiting the AIRIZONA memorial, a luau with all the rum and pineapple juice you cold drink. I take my hat off to you sailing like that.
Melian, a high bar for adventure has been set. Thank you for your memes, I copy them and spread them around to friends/Pat
"rained in" ????
