yeah most likely, lose interest, doing other projects, get married, get divorced and see my son go from 18 months to 9 years during the course of it. Kind of neat in a weird way.

Yeah, but this is a great way to keep in touch. New and long lasting friendships grow out of P-47 threads. Well. At least this one it does.

Not sure which is more scary , But there are great whites over the tasman,I think they do the round trip coming around the bottom Of the south island , they get pretty big ,
I wonder if the Guys in themiddle of the US even get to see the Ocean , it must be a long trip if they do
