Unfortunately, I only got around to visiting the Submarine Force Museum, but I did manage to get some good photos while I was there. I really enjoyed meeting with everyone, although we obviously didn't have a whole lot of time to spend. I would have loved to visit the the other stops, but we weren't getting any sleep, our motel was a flophouse (my Aunt found a cockroach in her bag, the room smelled like paint, the AC sounded like a lawnmower...) to put it politely, and all three of us were getting wired and stressed out. I tried to get some photos of them in, but I guess Bas and Michael are pretty camera shy.

There's really only so many ways to photograph the Nautilus, but I did manage to stop by at the scenic overlook nearby early on Friday morning.

The Eagle was in the Thames River, but I couldn't get close to it.

Aha! For some reason that's how I'd pictured him all this time. :)

Is the picture taken at the home of someone?

I'm waring those silly shorts, with the ponytail.

Ivank is in the Memphis shirt.

Bas and Michael were almost always venturing other parts of the museum

EDIT: That being said, August/Dave has almost all of the pictures that we got from Fall River (battleship cove) and the USS Salem.
Later tonight there should be more pictures :D
