Jerry,

When you left Norfolk, did you take one of the "Dogs and Sailors Keep Off the Grass" signs?

I know what you mean Jerry, I was down the river at Little Creek and Newport News. The locals didn't like my "VA Beach is for Fools" T-Shirt. I still don't understand people that can't handle the truth!
Plus, don't you just love riding on grooved pavement with a motorcycle? Makes for an interesting trip.

I spent a little time at Oceana and over by NOB, both for training (thank God! not duty)....and the person who designed the road system going from VA Beach to Norfolk must have loved playing pick-up-sticks when he was a kid!

And Stew, I agree with you. Let me add the Tidewater area to my list of "not fond of" places......

I had some training at Dam Neck. The most outstanding memory of my experience in VA was traveling down General Booth Blvd on my motorcycle and having some idiot come off of Oceana Blvd and clip my front wheel! They left me in the median and drove off, I was laid up for 20 + days with nothing but roadrash! They caught the guy 2 weeks later, thanks to another sailor that followed them to get the plate #.

More love for Norfolk...

Ahhh... Memories of the idiot sailors that saw "TopGun" (this was 87-91) and had to have a "crotch rocket" for themselves. I lost count of the accidents I saw happen right in front of me. Usually their own fault. :nopity:

One of my fondest memories was the Newport News Shipyard and the guy with the crossbow bolt in his back in the parking lot........

Top of my "Do not revisit list". :nope:

Al, you don't like Toledo. I used to have some enjoyable times there in the early 70's. Places like Tony Pacos, Toledo Museum, a fine Hungarian Resturant on Monroe Street, and my life was threatened at Jeep by union reps who saw me reworking some interior trim parts at the line. They said if I didn't stop, I could be tossed out the 3rd story window. :nope:
