Artist Ron Olansen's Watercolor of SSN21 (SEAWOLF) passing New London Harbor Lighthouse.

One of the fellows that I work with at Electric Boat, Ron Olansen, attends the Lyme Academy of Arts and always has several of his paintings on his desk. Just the other day I noticed this watercolor and of course I wanted it.

I thought that my Harbour Lights family would like to see it, especially those of you who were in the U. S. Navy or U. S. Coast Guard and stationed in New London, CT. This probably brings back some memories.

Ron... thanks for sharing the pick. I only made it to New London once, and that was to the USCG Academy. Too many cadittles running around there for me to handle! LOL

Nice work by your co-worker Ron!

I was there once too, unfortunately B4 lighthouses. Son and I were at the Academy, also went to the musuem and sub at Groton.
