Would You Believe it? ! ?

      I haven't had the chance to get to ABISHAG to do any work, but it is not for lack of trying. Ever time over the last few weeks when I have planned to go ns do work aboard, it rained. In some cases, it stormed . .  .lots of rain and some serious wind. The best days have been during the week and then I am at the loft. I can't blow off the loft as there is a ton of work and I also need the buckaroos. And spending all that time afoot is not the best for my bad knee or sciatica in my back.  I am beginning suspect a conspiracy of some sort.

     I haven't heard back from the National Maritime Document Center as of yet, except for the letter saying that I owed them another piece of info from my doctor that he forgot to include in the physical.  I would expect that the Credential will come soon though my current on is good until July 31st. I also have a document from the Coast Guard, as a result of the government shutdown, that technically extends the Credential for a year,  so I am not all that worried.
