Makes the "Swinger" clue fit.

John Surratt: The Lincoln Conspirator Who Got Away ? Civil War Saga
 

Confederate President Jefferson Davis, although not charged in this particular action, was implicated for inciting the traitorous bunch to kill the Union’s key leaders. Davis was a former U.S. senator from South Carolina who led that state’s secession from the Union in 1860. The court claimed that Davis “aided and comforted the insurgents, engaged in armed rebellion against the said United States [and aided] the subversion and overthrow of the Constitution and laws of the said United States.”
 

Anybody know about Sextants? It’s my latest kick. I think I’m going to teach myself how to use a sextant. Comments? Come on RC I bet you wrote the book!!!!!!!
2GF: That is a cool looking sextant, but my wife would probably put it where the sun don't shine if I won it.
 

Johnny,

You're one tough dude....you beat the odds and now they're tipping in your favor.

Regards + HH

Bill

p.s. This one's for you...





"POINTS TO PONDER"
Yesterday I turned seventy-two, the oldest age achieved by any male in the history of my family. My two younger brothers are both dead. I had a grandmother who made it to eighty-four. My mother made it to sixty-two, received her first social security check and died a few days later and the SS, withdrew the money from her account. GO FIGURE! Well, since I was reported killed in Viet Nam, maybe God checked me off his list and now I have a free pass. I would, from time to time, run into old friends who would say that they had heard I was dead. I would say something like "Must have been some other good looking guy." It would make a good movie, anyway. So, I am checking in to let you know I am still with you for the time being.

I love the mountains as well, come to think of it the Mohave desert as well, heck even the Pacific Northwest!

Heck boats can sink, airplanes can fall out of the sky, and hiking you could break a leg. There’s nothing like watching a sunset from the deck of your sailboat though!!!View attachment 1603329View attachment 1603330View attachment 1603331

First two pics are Southern California last October and the sailboat is last summer in Penobscot bay in maine

I use to have a T-shirt that read “ Fly Navy.........Divers need the work.” Think about it, think about it!!
