Good Night

Tsingtao-Nights.com is no longer. The domain expired and the files were deleted without backup. As I haven't been posting for many months now, I'm taking this as a sign and retiring from the blogsphere. I can still be reached for Alaska questions or inquires at michaelrshea at hotmail dot com.

All the best,

-- Mike Shea

We've moved

If you uses this tsingtao-nights.blogspot.com address make the switch to www.tsingtao-nights.com. It's the new and improved Tsingtao Nights. With the new sites I have more leeway in creating pages, changing the look-and-feel of the site, among other things. So check it out. The USS Alaska Project is back with force. Tsingtao-Nights.com

Server Move

SECOND UPDATE: The process of moving a domain from one server to the next is apparently a slow one. The transfer should be complete any day now. Then: a new feel, a new look, a new Tsingtao Nights. Keep checking back.

UPDATE: Hit a snag, so by "this weekend" read "next weekend." All the best, --Mike

We've outgrown Blogger, so ... Tsingtao Nights is moving! If we're down or look funny this weekend, that's why. The web address http://www.tsingtao-nights.com won't change, your bookmarks should be cool, but we might be down a bit. Don't fear. Stay tuned. Expect big things.

Happy Holidays


Well wishes to the entire Alaska gang this holiday season!

Alaska buff Ian "Colosseum" Roberts sent me a link this morning to his fine drawing of "The Mighty A." Click the image above for the full-size version.

"I recently found your nice blog about the CB-1 Alaska class cruisers and I must say that it's a wealth of information I had not seen before. :)," he wrote. "As you probably know, information about the Alaskas is relatively scarce across the internet, so finding something new is always fun! I am a big fan of the Alaska ships, so much that I've spent the past six months working on a computer graphics drawing of the ship as it would have appeared in 1945 for an online database of ship drawings."
