P.S.....DZLPWR, I know there's gotta be harbors in Virginia (VA) with the ocean and all, but where exactly did you find a body of water in West Virginia (WA) that could hold something as big as a Harbor?????????? :

Steve is from a backwards place in Washington State we call "Gig Harbor". 
I have seen Steve in his finest hour,
