Following up on last week’s trip aboard the USCGC Eagle, here’s a photograph taken by Petty Officer 3rd Class Tara Molle, who you may be familiar with from the District 13 Podcasts, which she hosts. The latest episode is devoted to Eagle, and I recommend it.
Anyway, I just love this picture, and it’s currently my desktop wallpaper. It features an HH-65C Dolphin helicopter, the barque Eagle, of course, and the Seattle skyline.

Tim – Can’t you PhotoShop the Space Needle in that pic. It’s the only thing that’s missing.

Mr. Molle, thanks for your comment. As a father of two (very young) daughters myself, let me say that you’re entitled to your pride!
FYI, when District 13 first launched the podcasts January, I sent them a LONG email with lots of constructive (I hope!) feedback. Among all the other things in that message, I said of your daughter “She’s a great hostess, by the way. She comes across as competent and dedicated, and when she smiles we feel that she really enjoys being part of the US Coast Guard.”

Tim,
We’re glad you like the stuff we’re putting out and I’m really glad we could get you on Eagle.

Great pic… I’ve just changed my main desktop to that thanks to you. Which is a pretty impressive feat. since I’d been sporting a Gunboat photo for some time now.
