I am offically on line from the freighter Arthur M. Anderson. I will be posting a little more often. Maybe we can get Denise to put in a post or two. I am in Stoneport, Michigan as of 2200 (that's 10:00 P.M. for you landlubbers). We are heading for Huron, Ohio which is (interesting fact #5) the most southern point a ship can be on the Great Lakes. It is near Cedar Point for all you amusement park goers. Then it is off to Toledo to load coal for Detroit, then back to Toledo to load coal for Escanaba, MI then back to Stoneport, Michigan on the 18th.
My last day of vacation I went and saw the Detroit Pistons lose to Lebron James and the rest of the Cleveland team. But we did see an exciting double overtime game. We, being Denise, Logan, Loralee, and myself. Denise and I took Loralee's bed and made her sleep on the sofa. She lives
just a few miles from the Palace of Auburn Hills. The very next morning Denise and Loralee had to to take me to Detroit to meet the boat. They got an unexpected treat. They got to take a ride on the J.W. Westcott (the only floating post office in the U.S. and the only boat with it's own zip code: 48222)
By the way there were no correct answers to my last trivia question. The correct answer is: Back in the olden days in jolly old England they used to serve beer in pints and quarts. When the customers got rowdy they were told to mind their own pints and quarts. This got shortened to P's and Q's. Better luck next time.

58 years old..... was the youngest pope. I'm still not sure if you are right about your p's and q's. I still think there are multiple answers. How come Lucas don't get in on this trivia? Have fun floating around. Maybe next break will be longer than this one. :(
Your Wife.
Hi Dan,
It was nice having you home for the month of May and that we had you at Dad's memorial service and the bbq afterwards. Nice family time. You usually miss out on these times.
Safe Sailing

Have a happy father's day Dan, you deserve it. You've been a great supporter and father to your kids and a very loving husband. I have no dad to be with this father's day so you get all my wishes. Darleen and I got flowers for dad's grave tomorrow and we are spending the day together somewhere. xo luv you..........Denise
