Journal Entry 061012-A: I wonder if there was a Jubilee Last night at The Fairhope, Alabama Beach?

Friends,

I wonder if they had that Jubilee last night along the "eastern shore" of Mobile Bay that a young man told me that his grandmother had predicted?

If you aren't familiar with what a Jubilee is that occurs only in two places on the planet that I know of please see Wikipedia link on this page to read about it.

I grew up on the "western shore of Mobile Bay and have unfortunately never attended a "real" Jubilee since moving my residence to the "eastern shore of Mobile Bay in 1995.

I have worked on the Baldwin County side of Mobile Bay or the "eastern shore and/or BattleShip Parkway almost my entire life less time in school a short stint working at Luther's Bar-B-Que at the time located on Airport Boulevard in Mobile when I was 16, time spent with my Grand-Parents; Mr. and Mrs. Nevin Sauce of Robinhood Drive off Dauphin Island Parkway in Mobile as a youngster and one summer when I was 15 that I spent most of my time with friend's- fishing, swimming, bike riding and camping out at the "fort" my friend's and I built on an old pier "platform that we actually" rebuilt after Hurricane Frederic in 1979 to dock our boats at and have our parent's worry we might accidently burn down with our "little" bar-b-que grill.

We won't mention girls as we got older! LOL! We were all friend's anyway!

The point is that last night was what it was and I do Love South Alabama and "The Central Gulf Coast" I just wish a few things were handled differently.

That's beside the point because it is a great place to live!

Pictured is a real 24" Ship's Steering Wheel with a 1" keyed straight smooth bore spline for use on your "boat" or as a "decorative" piece! They normally retail for much more if you can find one at any price but I have one that I will let you have "Now" for Father's Day at the pSale Price of: $49.99 plus tax and shipping!

Let me know in time to assure delivery by "Father's Day" by "visiting" or "calling me at Battle Ship Marine.

Visit the Battle Ship Marine link in the Navigation page for our "store" hours.

I look forward to hearing or seeing you!

God Bless, Peace, Love and Knowledge!

Journal Entry 060912-A: Boo Boo and I woke up this Morning!

Friend's,

Boo Boo and I woke up this morning "early" around 5:30 am after waking up once or maybe "twice" prior during the night!

Like my father always says you should never got back to sleep in the morning when you wake up for the time you are used to getting up but I guess it was the rainy weather because I went back to sleep because my "joints" were stiff from years and years of "hyper-activity" prior to 1993 when "I and my ex-wife Valerie started the "Original Battle Ship Marine on BattleShip Parkway in what is now Spanish Fort, Alabama but at the time was un-incorporated Baldwin County"!

Did I mention our partners? Jay and Nancy Barnett. I hope they are doing well? It was a silent "partnership" that just didn't work out with friend's that both my wife and at the time had been friend's with for years.

Be careful about your business relationships that involve such good friend's and have detailed agreements and written reports so there are never any misunderstandings.

It's awful to have a "misunderstanding" or "lack of communication" ruin your "friendships" for any length of time with long-term friend's that you share such wonderful experiences with as "volley-ball Sundays, New Orleans Saints Game trips, Alabama Football game trips and Gulf of Mexico "fishing trips" with!

This morning I woke up so stiff and sore at 5:30 am that I went back to sleep and slept an hour longer but had a miserable dream begin that I awoke from and jumped out of bed and hit the floor running!

I limbered up but "be safe" in your youth so you limit being a "pirate at 40" forward as "Jimmy Buffett" so wonderfully sings!

I made some "coffee" and "mopped the floors of the house and store and ran out the door to "Wal-mart" but I am back now and ready to meet your needs here at "Battle Ship Marine" in Fairhope, Alabama!

I could write more but I need to eat and take some dad-gum medication.

Let me know if you need anything by phone, e-mail or "just feel free to stop by!

God bless, Peace, Love and Knowledge!
