FLEET WEEK
Well for the Memorial Day weekend we contemplated doing numerous things....going to Washington DC (too pricey), driving to watch the Cubs play in Pittsburgh (too far and too pricey), West Point (not far, but gas is $4.15/gallon)....so we decided to stay in town and go to fleet week. What is it? Well two big naval ships docked on the Hudson River on the west side of Manhattan. They let you walk through the ship and onto the upper deck. As you can see below, they also let you hold big guns!!! We had a great time! Our friends Lindsey and Brad went with us and afterwards we went Dave and Busters for drinks and a few arcade games.... Arcade games are a whole other things for me and JT because we are so competitive. I will be honest. JT beat me at basketball and SkeeBall. But, I won the Nascar driving game and the motorcycle race, you know the ones where you move with the vehicle. OH, and btw, that gun weighed 28 pounds and it was longer than I was tall!!!
