It just occured to me that 40 years ago right now I was in the US Navy. I was on the USS Samuel Gompers, a destroyer tender, was on a West Pac cruise.
We were docked in the US Naval base in Yokosuka Japan. I don't even remember where I have any pictures I took on that cruise. But I still have some nice memories.

For sure, sounds like an interesting time!
Yes, it was. I was in my 20s so personal space wasn't quite so important to me. Which is a good thing because there was no such thing on that ship.
4o years ago...I wasnt even in high school yet. LOL
Yeah, I know. I'm OLD! Thanks for that. LOL 😂
No problem. Always here to remind you for when those Biden moments hit and you thing you are a spry young girl who can do acrobatic things on the balance beam.
I simply dont want you to hurt yourself.
Thank you again so very much! Cuz I probably would hurt myself.
I know I would hurt myself. Hell I would have hurt myself when a young man, let alone now.
I would be in traction.
I know, right?! Me too. I remember being in Vegas a few years ago for a reunion. Our group stayed at the Golden Nugget and they have the zip line thing right there. I got grief because I didn't want to do it. You know, called a chicken because it's not that far off the ground. Peer pressure. I didn't cave though. Please I could kill myself tripping on a crack in the sidewalk. I almost did once on a walk with Roy. Story for another day. I didn't give a damn. I didn't want to end up crippled from something I didn't need to be doing in the first place. I am mostly risk averse.
You should have done it. Have to make some memories.
