5/30/2009 Mystic CT Warm (finally) and sunny.
We got up slowly and just took it easy for the morning. I bought a package of replacement latches for the compartment doors on the trailer and replaced one. We printed a few pictures in preparation for the afternoon.
We went to the Pump Room at the USSVI Groton Base building to meet former buddies from the submarine service. Pete with wife Kathy showed up and so did Ray and Bill.
We told what we'd been doing and what had been done to us, then we got into old stories, and told a few jokes. We laughed and laughed. I haven't had that much fun in a long time and Dolores enjoyed it, too. A lot of water has passed over the bridge (think about it) since we served together. I met Ray in 1960, for instance.
After the two-and-a-half hour session, I took D to church at St Patrick's in Mystic. I went off and got fuel for the truck. Then we went to the Steak Loft at Olde Mystick Village for steaks - quite good.
Then we came back to the trailer to take it easy.
A great day.
