I went back through my pictures (I have digitised all my family's photos from as far back as 1890) and uploaded those of the yawl. Keep in mind that in '51 the film lost color quicker than the Kodachromes of the Mayflower taken in '57.

love to see you still use Dirt ball. I gave Cap that term my first summer. We laughed so hard it stuck. I think I got it from Gib Philbrick who used to own the Bowditch. Were you around when we all tied up in Newport on BOR mooring for the Americas Cup?
Bowdtich Tabor Boy Bill of Rights and Grand Turk. What a time. Cap did a rendition of the Ring dang do song that still makes Gib and I laugh. We were having a meal on the Bowditch all the crew had gone, consuming adult type beverages and he started to sing.. How about when Karl(bagpies) was mate and Cap had a late night parade down water street. My my
I do miss him. Seems most of the charecters that hung around the the water front are slowly moving on..

Got home about three weeks ago. Had my folks here in Texas for Thanksgiving, stayed for two weeks. Home till the end of February. Being re-assigned to the M/V YORKTOWN EXPRESS as permanent C/E. Need to get my annual MEBA physical done sometime before June. We do this in NOLA, so I’ll give you a heads up and hope we can all get together. Ranch is doing well. Keep in touch……I’ll give you a call here soon.

Thanks for the note, Happy holidays to you too. Of course I still remember you, you were a great XO. I think I posted a picture of the back of your head, check it out. Yes, still sailing in the seagoing sense, CM on a container ship. Middle East run, always interesting.
If your travels between MS and MD bring you through Columbia, feel free to stop by.

Kind regards,

Bob

Sorry to hear about your mother. I meet her once many years ago. I'm sure that was tough for you. So, are you now calling Pasca-fricken- goula home? When we talked last spring you were down there, and are still down there! As I mentioned to Bob, I'm hoping to be up that way next summer. Get my folks and family on a Maine schooner cruise. Helen has never been up there, to cold! Yes, next summer is also reunion time 25 years for me, 30 for you - ouch!
How time flies as we have fun.

Regards,
Jonathan
