Default USS Texas arrival webcam

On Monday Sept 4, between 0830 and 1000, the Texas will pass the bow of USS Cavalla at Seawolf Park. We have a webcam set up to broadcast this.

My family and I will be in attendance there, I'll wave at you
I'll be the guy wearing the shirt with lighthouses

Talk about your dumb luck. I stumbled across this post about a quarter after the hour and caught the entire thing. Thanks for the post!

Best Regards, Jim
