    It’s been here before, but this time under the photo, when it sailed under nuclear power. And a few other photos, it needs a new base. But that won’t happen. Made a few minor changes. Looks a little beat, like it just came back from the North Pole. You know, the admiral Wilkinson would be proud, and below, IMG_2807.jpeg IMG_2810.jpeg IMG_2809.jpeg NAUTILUS 90 NORTH……………and who knows what that white half moon is in the top of the photo, just showed up.

    You don't have any ceiling mounted lights or globular hanging lights?

    Have you kept your exorcisms up to date?

    Ah, yes, the overhead fan with a light with a frosted white cover. Glass in pictures produces all kinds of reflections. Thank you kindly.

    I’ve always been fascinated by the story of the Nautilus. Read two books about her and I have this coffee mug. The photo came with an authentic autograph of Admiral Wilkinson that is verified by a certificate which I have taped to the back of the picture frame.

    I was incidentally in the same room with Adm. Hyman Rickover once. Was he always pissed off?

    I don’t remember. May have been mentioned in the book Nautilus 90 North but I don’t have it anymore.
