While in South Carolina for the soccer tournament, we spent an
afternoon at the USS Yorktown, an actual aircraft carrier that was used in the
Pacific during World War II. We toured "The Fighting Lady", climbed
aboard planes on the flight deck, and learned about the day to day live of the
crew members. The boys were intrigued by it - especially Evan.
This is my favorite shot from the entire trip. Love, love, love the precious salute, and the spontanity of it.
Upon entering the first tour, Evan immediately began imagining they were responsible for finding spies that had infiltrated the ship while at sea. Keagan was the commanding officer, and he gave the "marching orders" to the "Army men" working for him on the boat.
Oma and Opa left Mt Pleasant, Texas to meet us in Mt Pleasant, SC to watch the boys play soccer. They joined us on the tour of the Yorktown. This picture was taken after we toured the submarine.
This was a great adventure for the boys. I highly recommend it if you are ever in the Charleston area.
