Never tried them...that pic alone is enough to make head down there for lunch today though!

Had dinner at Popeye's last night. There's not one near me but I was going through Vallejo last night at dinner time so I stopped by. They do a pretty good job on the chicken. I don't do KFC anymore though. Every time I do, I regret it by the time I'm done with the meal. Just too greasy and my stomach doesn't seem to like it.

Not much there any more, I counted about 6 ships yesterday when I crossed the bridge. I think most have gone for scrap but some may be floating museums.

"Floating museums"... There's a joke there somewhere, but I'm not going there.

Wow, that's all?

I haven't been across the Benicia bridge in many years. The last time I was there they still had a ton of ships out there.

Yeah last I heard the few that were there were destined for scraping... my grandfather used to have some navy binoculars that my brother and I would use to look at them. I think my grandfather used to tell us about the ships and such but I don't really remember anything from it.

I don't know if it will work but here is a wiki link for the Mothball fleet in their various locations.

I hadn't heard about all the pollution they were leaving at Suisun Bay.
