Sorry, we lost power for several hours last night, due to a fire at a power plant not far away, and with it went my post. I'm too busy to reconstruct the post and since I was uploading pics from my digital camera, I lost those too. Soooo, here's a few pics I found courtesy of the navy.

At this site you can find a list of all the equipment aboard the USS Wasp. And here you can peruse the pictures taken by someone else who visited the ship, The irony, from the pics I recognize that they were they guys who were standing in line behind me. It is a small world.

Below are a few of my own. First up are the BLUE ANGELS IN FORMATION. This is what they looked like to me as they passed overhead during that day's memorial ceremony.

Fleet week is always made exciting first by the incredible technological power displayed by the Navy. Next comes its impressive naval crew. The men and women that serve us are absolutely amazing and the time I spent on the USS Wasp was made memorable by the conversations I had with these incredible individuals. Today I'm posting general pics I took (or swiped) to share with you. Tomorrow I'll have a few quotes and pics with some of these individuals. On Sunday I'm posting some of the Navy toys I was able to play with : )
