Top Secret Intelligence Gathering in America

My 6 yo son and me are going on a special intelligence gathering road trip to Muskogee, OK to view an American submarine there this weekend-the USS Batfish.

http://hnsa.org/ships/batfish.htm

We're hitting the road tomorrow morning from Denver, CO.

Will bring back pictures if anyone is interested.

I get that a lot when I tell people where we're going.
I know the Arkansas River runs through there. They probably towed it up that and deposited it there.

I was quite suprised when I saw that last year too. It'll make for a good weekend road trip to do some boy bonding with my son.
