Message | Hi, everyone! Hope you are having a wonderful holiday season. Pat and I are doing super at our end. I'm in the process of switching the Spangler website to Google Sites. The dollar savings is great but the work is tedious. As before, you can still get there using the same web pages as before. Sad to say, though, much of everything is still under construction, so don't be surprised if all you see in visiting a page is a return button. Have a Happy New Year! |

Message | 60 years ago, this year - who woulda dreamed it. I recall being on the bridge in '57 wondering if any of us would live to see year 2000 - what seemed like a long, long way in the future back then. Wonderful hearing from you Gene. "Whew" fits 1957 just right! |

Message | Back aboard ship again. Can feel the rumble! Smell the smell! This time aboard the S.S. Badger, a passenger-car ferry across Lake Michigan. A 4-hour trip. It's not the Spangler, but many times larger, more like the USS Prairie, a destroyer tender. The vibrating feel is the same. The Badger went into service in 1953, one before I stepped aboard the Spangler. Great memories! |
