THL and TL Go To U-505

Here are some of our pictures from the U-505. If anyone is near Chicago...ever...I suggest you make it out to see it - I spent the entire time with my mouth open and had to pick up my jaw on a number of occasions! I am still awe!! The last picture was the flag flown on the Chatelain.

I was expecting some faces.

Anyway, I especially like the 3rd and last pic. Very nice.

You'll see a few of me, but as far expecting a picture of my beloved, yet camera-shy THL, fuhgheddabouddit...ain't goin' happen unfortunately.
I had to....beg, for lack of better expression for a few of her.

And if I posted them here, she'd rip off my appendages in the middle of the night while I'm here. Even if I posted them after I returned to Florida, she'd still find a way to have me executed....slowly, violently and painfully.

Maybe you guys can convince her. Try hard, but don't count on it.

And no, calling me p-whipped ain't goin' shame me into doing it.

One of my bro's already found that one out

Anyway, I'm leaving for FL tomorrow.
This has been an incredible trip and I still can't believe it's almost over.

LOL. I guarded the camera with my life, Sniper.

I am thinking of going to visit my dear TH in October...maybe then, if there is enough alcohol in Ft Myers to distract me, will I fall prey to this photo hunt.

I can guarantee the alcohol, but not the effects on my beloved THL.

Lovely, I hope it's chilly out 'cause I'll be wearing a veil that day.

TopHat has not seen these effects since I was 22...maybe not even then.
I must admit, though, (this is gonna hurt) that I do kinda wish I had a picture of TopHat and I together from our weekend now. Next time, TopHat, be a little more demanding of it.

Well, why don't we say that TH has posted the photos and you just go pulverize him for our entertainment, okay?
