    while on the high seas since you have been stated as capable of WALKING ON WATER if you get bored on the ship at least you can go out for a stroll:) Have a safe trip , sitting here in the North waiting for them to start a 50 year old crane that looks like it last started 49 years ago:( but we have cell service

    Kellan, best wishes to you!! Obviously you have the instincts that I lacked (but developing) and Johnboy is a great mentor and friend to me. You are in great company, at a great company.

    Thanks I appreciate it! Currently backed into the dock down in Miami waiting for the fork lifts to offload. Then my first solo run with the company will be complete. Time for some turkey, a few days off then back on the road again.
