About

I am currently living in Lexington, VA. This is a blog of my travels. Previous posts were of my visits to Europe and my work aboard a small cruise ship.

Seven Staples

Current location: Portland, ME

We all get bumps and scrapes while working on the ship. However, today saw something a little worse. While trying to climb onto the dock in Portland, my fellow deckhand Shawn hit his head on a shore power connector. He was back on duty before days end, but with seven staples in his scalp.
