Seeing Bobgggg's post and picture on US 233/233a (https://goscf.com/t/2765) got me to thinking about one of my all-time favorite sets.

Swabbie comes from a long line of sailors. Goes back
farther than John McCain, whose father and grandfather
were both admirals.

Actually my father, grandfather, and great-grandfather really were sailors. Maybe that is my ancestor in the crow's nest. It sure looks like my family!

It ends with me though. Neither of my daughters seem to be interested in the adventure of the high seas.
