John - I wandered/wondered onto your post on navyvets.com . You must have a superb memory. I can't remember you, but I was in that whale boat with you! Looks like you've had a full and wonderful life. Me too. Been blessed. Blue Jackets Choir was an amazing experience. I almost didn't volunteer for the BJC when the Company Chief asked if there were any "song birds" in the company. But, I figured I could sing good enough to get into this "deal", so what-the-heck, I raised my hand. Am I glad I did!
I think you are in Colorado? I'm down here in Texas, living the good life about 20 miles from where I was born, close to Austin, Texas. Been married 47 years, 2 kiddos and 5 granddaughters. With 5 granddaughters, oh the drama! Next week, I'm gonna go to San Diego to a softball tournament. While there, I hope I can access Nimitz and the training center. I'd like to be able to stand on the Preble grinder and reminisce. Hope I can access all that area. I'll let you know what happened and how things look there. All the best to you. Life is good!
I'm Bill Karr. My son Doug created this site and I help him out a bit. We hope that you enjoy it.
