  1. Looking forward to it. I just hope it's not the weekend of the 20-21st. We'll be in Florida at a ship reunion that weekend.
  2. I have a shower curtain bar just like that for sale. I ordered it & never used it. Still in the box.
  3. Roll-in?
  4. My Brother was on the Radford, back in the 80's. He was a spook. (CTO).
  5. Nice poem, indeed. I know you miss him, but I got a feeling he will always be with you.
  6. I am a Plankowner of the USS Monterey (CG-61). We commissioned her in 1990. Most of my stories should be left at sea...lol. Anyway...I joined Facebook around 2009, and started using it & other online means to track down the other Plankowners. This was not an easy task. Well, I ended up finding over 250 of the original crew. I created a group on Facebook, where we can all hang out & keep in touch. Several of the guys accused me of working for the CIA, because I was able to track down so many people...lol. I organised our first reunion in 2012, in Jacksonville. We had quite a few in attendance, and had a great time. Most of us hadn't seen each other in 20 years. Next year is the 25th anniversary of the commissioning, and we are having another reunion to celebrate. Looking forward to it. Also, a fellow Venturerider was with us at PRECOM, to train our Radiomen. He is an Honorary Plankowner, and was invited to the reunion as well. Many of you know Marshall Gammon. Here is a pic of the ship, of me & of the first reunion. The 2 older Gentlemen up front are the original CO & XO. Those who know me will recognize me as the guy in the black shirt with the glasses on my head.
  7. All of these posts are hilarious. You can sure feel the love here, Puc...lol. I do hope the Docs can get you fixed up.
  8. Hope your new Doctor knows what he's doing, and can get you fixed up. Sorry you're hurting.
  9. I have only bought accessories from them, but I know lots of people who have bought from them, and like them.
  10. Sorry to hear this.
  11. According to the date on the pictures, you're not supposed to pick them up 'til next month.
  12. I am a transplanted yankee. Took my whole driver's ed class on snow & ice.
  13. I am ready.
  14. Pull off left side cover & check fuses there.
  15. We have the full Corbin seat, with driver backrest & passenger armrests. We have rode several 600 mile days, and no complaints from my wife. She loves it back there.
  16. What is this "winter storage" you speak of?
  17. I've seen those at Hannigan's. There is a 4-wheeled one also.
  18. Page 13 of the manual, part no's 14 & 15.
  19. For some reason, this thread won't show up in "new posts" anymore.
  20. Have a fun & safe trip!
  21. Watch this...
  22. If this thread gets deleted, then it just shows what is wrong with this country. Getting things pushed up under a rug, just because someone disagrees with it. I am TIRED of things being modified/changed/removed in this country, just because someone got offended. Time to put the big girl panties on. These things NEED to be discussed, as they may affect us all. My two cents.
  23. I used to have one. Mine had alot of options. We loved it, but ended up selling it to another member here, after we bought a motorcycle camper. Kind of wish we still had it. http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i274/13thAFMonterey/trailer006.jpg http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i274/13thAFMonterey/trailer004.jpg http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i274/13thAFMonterey/trailer001.jpg
