The rubber guy may have taken a little time off, but the reminders of how important our rubber is have been all around me. On this final day of our Alaska cruise, the MV Western Titan from Western Towboat Company in Seattle cruised by with an Alaska Marine Lines barge loaded with goods. Looking forward to being back at it on Monday!
