Looking at the truck, I was reminded of Steinbecks's "Travels with Charley". I recall it being an amusing read, although I don't remember all that much about it. I did remember Steinbeck's truck with that same style of old camper on it, and thought of it immediately when I saw it in the photo. Robert |

Nothing to do with Ralph, as long as I don't go below, and even then it's mainly queasiness. It's just that I need to marinate at least every couple of days or I go nuts on the boat. I can't take being cooped up with the same guys for too long, no matter how much I love them ashore. Luigi Luigi |
