Happy Birthday, Chief!

I lost track of the date, but on this one (Jan 16, 1918) my father was born. He died in 1977 from smoking. The ship is the USS Maccamaw, an oil tanker on which he served in the fifties.

Hi, Gene. I'm loving retirement, too, although babysitting a non-stop five-year-old four days a week is exhausting.
