On the Way Home

There's no way the boys would let us miss this - I think they've talked about this place at least once a month for the last five years...


We stopped to visit the USS Alabama
(a battle ship)





and the USS Drum.
(a submarine)



The boys had a lot of fun touring the ship...

ladders everywhere... climbing all over... it was great.


I had fun, too. But I think the part I enjoyed most was sitting in the A/C watching the USS Alabama commemorative movie - it was a hot morning!







I'm thankful we have places like this to visit - I'm glad that my boys can learn about and I can be reminded of all of the sacrifices our servicemen, women, and their families have made throughout our country's history and today.
