Going up hills.....BBBBAAAAWWWAAAHHHAAAAA!!!!!!!!

Hills..

======================

I've seen plenty of hills off the Rhode Island and Maine coasts. They
also move. I think you would agree that a 2.2 hp is no match for a
moving hill.

Sorry - I keep forgetting that my unfortunate brand of humor doesn't
seem to work on this august body of great and not so great personages.

Sometimes I just can't help myself. :)

Remember the Quicksilver surf contest is the "men who ride mountains".

I've actually seen some of those "mountains" in Guam of all places.

And, without getting into the great "wave height" debate, I have some
pictures around here my Dad's XO took on convoy duty in the North
Atlantic during WWII when he commanded a DE.

Them's some BIG waves. I used to love to hear the stories he and his
shipmates used to tell about asking their Group Commander for
submariner designation because they spent more time under and through
the waves than over them. :)

Hey, it was funny to a kid. :)

Later,

Tom
