USNS Bowditch Postcard
Paint by Numbers - Then and Now
Art therapy - the painting in my stateroom aboard USNS Bowditch and the painting now.
I did this picture during a particularly “rough” cruise…I honestly think that it helped me to keep my sanity during the days when it was virtually impossible to make your way around the ship! Of all of the items that I brought home with me from my Navy experience …it’s probably the most treasured.

The Bowditch, and her sisters Dutton and Michelson, were converted from WWII Victory-class cargo ships.
