Here is something fun for the archeologists in the group. The
USS Alligator is apparantly on the "to be found" list and I met 1 of the gentlemen who is going to work on the project. I found the entire site, as well as the conversation, absolutely fascinating.
Oh how cool! I have never even heard of the Alligator before! something new for me to do instead of finding a job or being productive.....
ReplyDeleteThat's pretty cool. I heard that one of those sunken submarines from the Civil War was raised recently. I think I saw it in an issue of National Geographic.

ReplyDeleteyou needed an excuse? I can provide long lists of reasons not to be productive if you need more.

the problem with learning is that it means more to read about & I do not need anything else to read. I am running out of space as it is!

what was really fascinating was talking with the gentleman and his wifr, both of whom are part of this project. The stories they told were fantastic! I am hoping to get more out of them, because hearing a 1st hand account about the funny parts of building the replica of the USS Monitor was great!
