Thank you so much, Mark,
 It's been way too long since I last noticed you commenting - guess it was on those incendiary things, and your glass grenade. Do remind me if you don't see me posting new and phantastic items there within the next two weeks, OK?   Best as ever, Michael |

Another Swede
I drove to Provincetown early this morning to see the Whaler Charles W. Morgan as she was visiting there for the weekend . Unfortunately she was anchored out in the roadstead .
Something even nicer was also visiting and tied up alongside the wharf . A Pinnace of 1625 vintage faithfully reproduced . I am in love . http://www.kalmarnyckel.org/download/knf_guidebook.pdf Last edited by Rick; 12th July 2014 at 02:13 AM. |
