Shipyard Sunrise

Northern Wisconsin is fading into the distance this time around, but before leaving, I was blessed to capture the sunrise behind Fincantieri Marinette Marine.
Shipyard Sunrise - Marinette, WI
I've had a long day on the road, so I'm going to keep this short. Today was another great day.  Good sunrise, good walk, good daily practices, and I got to meet an interesting gentleman that taught me some things I didn't know about Green Bay, Wisconsin.

I'm looking forward to what tomorrow may reveal.

There's a Reason They Call It a Trial and Not a Kegger - Round 2 (or is it 3?)

Long day at an acceptance event for a ship today.  Most of the work was put in countering rumors and innuendo, which is not really too much fun. Proof positive that there is no greater enemy of the truth than strongly held beliefs.

I am grateful that I finally got around from mucking about in the weeds and poked my head up far enough to see the elephant. It certainly happened too late, but it did get the ball rolling in the right direction.

Tomorrow is another day, and I'm optimistic that it will be a good one.

Midwest Rambling

Today has been a long travel day that started too early, ended too late, and covered four states. The day started in Maryland, progressed to Illinois, dawdled in Wisconsin, and wrapped up in Michigan.

Along the way I picked up a haircut, went to work in a shipyard, got in a walk of reasonable distance, and viewed the Great Lakes for the first time in my life.

I am tired, so I'm going to keep this brief. Days like today make me grateful for the opportunities that present themselves and give me another boost of curiosity to see just what will unfold tomorrow.
