When I first started driving for a living , in 1978 . Thirty three years ago . I arrived at the port of Miami in the middle of the night . As the sounds of the morning woke me up , and I steped out of the truck . There was a cruise ship only a couple hundred feet away . Seeing it , for thirty three years now . I wanted to go on a cruise .
I would thing . You , JJ and a few other salty dogs could turn a cruise ship into a fishing vessel .
I'll bet it could pull a net , and not slow down . Just think . A fishing boat with a swimming pool . a casino , ballroom , dinning halls , and to stay fit , a full gymnasium . Enough room to have a crew of a couple thousand .
I sent you an E-mail a couple of weeks ago . I was worried about you and all my friends up the East coast . When the hurricane blew through . I saw complaints about people losing power and it not being restored with a snap of a finger . A couple hundred power crews were passing through here Friday before the storm made landfall Monday .

I just had to play with this idea . On a cruise ship you would have to walk to work . Not roll out of the bunk , and be at work 20 feet away . You would have to shower , shave and put on a tuxedo , to go to dinner . With only special invitation dine with the captain . Making sure you watch your language in front of the captain and the many guest . Remember to complement the chef . I know your chuckling at that this .
We love the pictures of the fishing boats . I'm making light of how life must be there .
I wish not to distract others from making their comments .

That is somewhere I would rather not go . I'm to straight to except that . I know they have names for people like me . That is their problem , not mine .

Interesting pictures BH. Love the ocean and boat/ship photos. We don't see too many (none) in the plains states.

#11 - Sat Sep 17, 2011 4:22 PM EDTWas the ambiance better when it was a major fishing town?
You just come on over, Kona is a drinking town with a fishing problem! Just the other day a small pickup truck pulled onto the road from the harbor with a marlin in the bed that was too big and hung over the end! That was such a cool sight.lol

I thought that might be the case of the before and after, bore-head and before would be my preference. None of that fancy stuff, just plain fun. My Pop worked in a steel mill and his buddies were a lot of fun and didn't get all proper on anyone.

Awesome shots, miss the water. Hopefully be able to go to visit family next summer (niece is graduating). Brother in law has a couple boats (river & ocean) & we always go out a couple times when we are out there visiting (Oregon). Also hope one of these years to come out & visit your area, it is beautiful & my wife has never been to the east coast. That needs to be remedied.
