At random: Interests in submarines extends to royalty and presidents. The King of England and the King and Queen of Spain are among those who have made submerged cruises in submarines. As a result of a trip in an early United States submarine, President "Teddy" Roosevelt ordered extra compensation for personnel serving in the "Silent Service." President Harry Truman made a 440 foot dive in a captured German submarine. The first President to cruise aboard a nuclear submarine was President Eisenhower who rode the USS SEAWOLF out of Newport, Rhode Island on September 26, 1957.

Hey Corabelle,
Now that you've achieved Master And Commander status, have you ordered up your gold braided blue blazer?

Have you prepared for the next bout of winter?

Take Care,
Steve

...a gold braided blue blazer? (Say that real fast.) Where the heck is it?

Yes, I'm afraid winter's here. We got some more snow last night. Just enough to cover grass and pavement. I have a very steep driveway, and it took me two tries getting the car back into the garage after I came home from shopping. Almost thought I smelled rubber burning.
