There I was…
Exploring a shipwreck 800 feet underwater in a three-person submarine, the light falling to a iridescent midnight blue...
Having coffee with the captain of an aircraft carrier at sunrise during flight ops. (Only later to be fired off the ship by a one-million horsepower steam driven catapult).
Speaking of ships, there was that time I was chased by a burning boat in the ocean at night. And the time I was chased by a bear in the U.P. while shooting a Mead Paper commercial.
