This is an Intarsia of my best friend, but I think I will keep it for him!



This is a photo of my buddy "Max".

Excellent work, love the colors.  I don't think he will mind if you look after it for him.

Thanks to everyone for your kind and encouraging comments. The best thing about finishing a project is knowing you can now start another one.

So together from me and Max we thank you!

Thanks so much Ray! Also, some of my fondest memories are of the time I spent serving onboard the USS TURNER JOY DD-951.

Louis, I was a plankowner on the now decommissioned USS Yorktown CG-48 It was the second Aegis Cruiser and for a while the only Aegis in the fleet after the first one, the Ticonderoga was out of commission for a bit after a fire. We commissioned the Yorktown in 1984.
