    Default prairie schooner

    not sure why, but i am thinking about starting to collect this game. now this coming from a native Kansas boy! who has NEVER been to easy on water. to give a example: took my parents to Niagara falls for their 48th anniversary, on the way back i though it would be FUN to take the ferry-ship across lake Michigan. now a lot of you have been out of site of land before i believe, BUT not me. i sat in the lounge drinking my COKE A COLA never to look up till we docked some time later. now a lot of you will say "WHY get into sailing ships?" and my answer can only that we all HEAR THE CALL OF THE SEA!! even land locked shockers!

    Welcome aboard, Peter. We're glad you have joined us.

    The only water I ever was around growing up were open fire hydrants. Let's just say I thoroughly enjoy having my feet on land.
