The 9th Year and 4022nd Post of This Blog

Well, I guess I missed the big 4000th post.

But this is now the 9th year of this blog and this is the 4022nd post.  It started in 2012.

This blog grew out of my Saw the Elephant:  The Civil War blog.  When it comes to the war, I am a bigger naval fan and I saw that the other blog was beginning to be the main part so started this one.

It was also the sesquicentennial of the Civil War.

The sign-off names (Old B-Runner and Old B-R'er) come from the blockade running, and, of course, I'm a bit old.
