ANCHORS AWEIGH!
I want to make sure you're all aware this
is "Navy Day. " Not the Navy Birthday. That;s
October 13th. Navy Day is a separate tribute
set up by the Navy League and always observed
on October 27th, the birthday of Teddy Roosevelt,
a strong supporter of the U.S. Navy. I was not in
the Navy but I have several friends who are
Navy veterans and I salute them for their service.
I feel somewhat akin to them today because for
awhile I had my own fleet! There was my pontoon
boat and one of those small paddle boats we kept
at our camper by the lake. They're both gone now
but I still have my Flagship! It's an 8 foot Jon boat
I call John Buoy! It will take me just about
anywhere as long as I can row! Hope it's smooth
sailing for you and that all your NEWS is good!
