Hi. John
No, we have never been to the Keys. With Carol working full time and me busy with my "Bill-Can-Do,LLC" business, we never seem to have time for anything else.
Some day, if we ever get both of us with the same free time, we'd like to get together for a lunch or diner....Some day.

Thanks for the kind words, John. I'm a lot better looking than my Dad, though (but I'm about 100lbs heavier, too!)

We'll keep plugging away at the site. We hope to get a calendar released soon so we can support reunion dates, etc.

Thanks, Douglas. Looking at your pic and pics that I have of your dad back in '61 - '62, it is apparent that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

Welcome Aboard, Mr. Olssen! Glad to see another Halibut sailor on board. I'll work on getting your commands in tonight!
