Good morning everyone. "Wow!" what a day. The sky has clouds of all colors and the ocean is busy. Grandpa where are all those sailboats going too? It's the Marina Del Rey to Hawaii Race and the first one to Hawaii is the winner. Oh! and what is that boat in over there? It's called the Portland Light Ship, It had a series of 4 ships in 72 years. The job of the Portland Light Ship number 112 was to act as a Harbor control and examination ship. Stationed outside of Submarine net in Portland Harbor in Maine. So that German Subs could not sneak in. This was during World War Two. What's it doing in the Pacific Ocean? It's on a training mission. Oh! This is one exciting day, I think I will just sit here and watch the ships and the pretty sky. So where are we going tomorrow. That will be a surprise.
