They have paved roads and sidewalks and everything. IF I getback I'll
take some 'downtown' photos and perhaps a DGYC hat or shirt or something.

Oh and PS.

Why would anyone need a car on the island? I was floored when I saw
what looked like an oldsmobile in that one picture.

Oh well have fun in Orleans.

100 miles to go and I'm home. Just got into Seattle. Stopped by the
union
hall. Visited some friends. Phone rings. Hey you want to go work on
a
ship that needs delivery to a dry dock? So . . .0500 tomorrow I fly to
MardiGras-itaville and back to it for a (hopefully) few more weeks.

So what's all this BS about no jobs and no high paying jobs? I can't
get
more than a 10 day vacation after four and a half months of working
12-16/7?

Time for people to quit whining, get a clue and start "working!" I
need
the break.

But in the meantime I'll take the money . . . . .miss the Oak Harbor L&A
party and cut yet another month off my schedule for going out full time
sailing. Life, as they say, is SWEET and the future is so BRIGHT I
gotsta
where shades!

Especially before Kerry cuts the jobs, cuts the pay and raises the
taxes.

Seriously, if US Citizens don't want to work there a lot of 'legal'
immigrants and 'legal' greencard holders from just the Phillipines ready
to
take the money. And they are damn fine sailors.

Make that back to the lode stone .. . . .

Doug was right .. . .union is definitely the way to go!
