To those interested, concerned, or passing through in curiosity, it is my hope that what follows can provide to you some insight into a world at the world's end, where hard men brave some of the roughest seas to seek their fortune, or to escape from a life of security for a life of unknown harshness and beauty, or to just runaway.
It has been said that the sea is where men go to become again boys.
This will be the story of Alaska in the winter among the crab fisheries of the Bering Sea. A story of sailors leaving their homes to take residence aboard the tug Malolo, hauling the freight of far of ports in pursuance of a living. This is a story without a plot, to be defined in the coming weeks and months.
Your parents are watching so do good, stay well and keep in touch.
