Ah yes, one of my favorite genres of baby full score trio pictures: Isabella being openly affectionate toward Emma and Norman in front of Ray while being hands off with him.

Meant to take a nap, accidentally spent an hour reading about Polish grass rye vodka. Guess I’m getting out of bed and going to the liquor store

January 14, 2024 Update from the Battleship Texas Foundation

"DRY DOCK TOURS

Tours are now full through the entire month of January. We look forward to welcoming five hundred of you into the shipyard to see the amazing progress made to Battleship Texas!

STEEL REPAIR - Steel repairs have been completed on the hull of Battleship Texas. The entire hull has been coated.

This area housed one of the 5”/51 cal. Guns. The deck has been blasted, coated, and awaits a layer of wood. The surrounding area and overhead has been blasted and painted white/navy blue 5-N. The guns are currently being restored and will be placed aboard next month.

Openings where the ships 5”/51 cal. Guns were. They are being restored and will be placed back next month.

HULL - The ship’s hull has been coated in PPG SIGMASHIELD 880 GF to protect the steel from potential corrosion. While the hull is supposed to be red below the black band at the waterline, the Battleship Texas Foundation has chosen to not spend the extra funds on a cosmetic choice that will not be seen once the ship is back in the water. The coatings that have been applied are plentiful and should protect the ship for many years to come.

Steel repairs in this area are complete. The hull is now fully coated!

NAVY BLUE 5-N - Above the boot top (above the black band) the ship has been painted Navy Blue 5-N. This color was matched from existing examples found aboard (both internally and externally) the vessel. The ship was painted in this camouflage scheme (Measure 21) prior to deploying to the Pacific Theater in World War II. At this time Battleship Texas is the ONLY museum ship painted in this scheme and only one of two Battleships in their wartime measure.

HULL NUMBERS - The new hull numbers have been extensively researched so each number is not only the correct font, but applied in the appropriate position it was in 1945. The numbers have been applied to both bow and stern.

The ship’s name and hull number look great!

Steel repairs in this area are complete. The hull is now fully coated!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

KEEL BLOCKS - Yes, the keel blocks supporting Battleship Texas can be moved. Each block is moved so the area atop of them can be blasted, repaired (if need be), and coated.

SPLASH! - The ship will be put back into the water in February 2024, but is dependent on the weather.

WHAT’S NEXT? - Battleship Texas will remain at Gulf Copper Shipyard for the time being. Additional steel work, removal and replacement of the ship’s deck, and superstructure/aft fire control restoration will continue.

Today is the last day of 2024. Tomorrow is the day that new year's resolutions will start, and people will try and break their bad habits or create new habits. Lots of people will attempt to participate in Dry January as well. Just a reminder:

You aren't a bad person if you fail to meet a goal, or if it doesn't go as planned.

You're allowed to adjust goals as you go to meet yourself where you're at.

You're allowed to start your goals after January 1st too if you feel like you aren't going to be ready. (Just remember to try and set a deadline so you can actually do it when you're ready.)

You can always ask for help if you need it.

If you took the effort to set a goal, it's likely something that means a lot to you. Don't give up! Even if you make mistakes or face setbacks, it's still absolutely worth your time to accomplish your goals.

Stay safe everyone! Happy new year.

Dry January Non-Alcoholic Adventures

NKD Whiskey - tastes like all the bad parts of rubbing alcohol and rubber erasers. It's familiar in a way that's accurately capturing... something. But not something enjoyable. I'm big on scotch and bourbons, so it's not like I don't know what it should taste like. I think it was someone on reddit who brought up erasers, and this is like a crumbling, dry, ancient and used eraser on a chewed-on 3.5" #2 pencil

Untitled Art S'mores Dark Brew - What if you poured 3/4ths of a can of so-so stout out, then filled that space with water. That's what this tastes like.

I can see Ghia Ginger Spritz genuinely appealing to people, and I appreciate that its Strong and in small cans. It's just so bitter that it's more of a Punishment Drink for my palate. I'd rather drink the very-negroni-accurate Phony Negroni, which is both well-flavored (more mellow, a little sweeter) AND adorably packaged

Dry january

Le Dry January a été lancé en France le 1er janvier 2019 à l'initiative de l'association française "France Janvier Sobre" créée sous la présidence du Dr Christine Joly. Buvez bon Buvez moins

“Are you doing dry January?” And forego the sublime pleasure of a long walk in the cold to sit in a warm bar with a glass of Reisling and a mystery novel and feel the heat and the wine with an exquisite soft tingling slowly return feeling to my cheeks? Don’t be ridiculous.

[fencehopping]

Day 21 of dry, clean eating, hot yoga January. My bloodwork at the end of the month better be sparkling.
