From the Navy website, here's a picture of USS Buffalo (SSN 715) undocking in Pearl Harbor: My best sea story from being in drydock is when I was Ship's Duty Officer on USS Topkea (SSN 754) in San Diego during the magnitude 7.3 Landers and 6.5 Big Bear earthquakes on 28 June 1992. This was the first night I had felt comfortable enough as SDO to actually sleep in my rack; prior to that, I had always...

Capistrano Ruins-Summer View-12x9, oil on linen During our recent trip to San Diego, I persuaded my husband to indulge me and take a day trip up to San Juan Capistrano, a delightful little town about 45 minutes north of Escondido. I had visited the ancient Spanish mission that is there a few years ago, and the memory of the place was so lovely that I knew I had to go back. I was not disappointed, as...

The contract...

“California tumbles into the sea” But when Steely Dan sang this back in the seventies they had an earthquake along the San Andreas Fault in mind, not the kind of slow destruction that now stalks the Golden State, which is, how can I put this, fucked. . My first visit there was in 1978 and it lived up to all my preconceptions. Golden beaches, golden girls, fabulous wealth, glamour, cleanliness,...
