Monty Posted August 4, 2011 #1 Posted August 4, 2011 We're headed out to Virginia Beach today. Looks like we're gonna have cooler weather out there. Haven't been there in 20 years. We'll be in the truck, as we're taking the oldest Son and his wife on a little vacation, before he deploys overseas in 2 weeks. He hasn't seen the beach since he was a baby. I got us two hotel rooms, with hot tubs, overlooking the beach. Should be a great time.
SC89Venture Posted August 4, 2011 #2 Posted August 4, 2011 You will most certainly enjoy it, they did a nice job re-vamping the downtown area up and down ocean drive. I always enjoyed the fighters practicing take off's and landing's from Navy yard. Thank you son for his service for us.
Monty Posted August 4, 2011 Author #3 Posted August 4, 2011 I'm hoping we enjoy it. We lived there when I was in the Navy, and I didn't care much for it. Too many people crammed into a very small area. Along with other things, I'm gonna take him to the USS Wisconsin, for a tour. That should be awesome. I wanted to take him aboard my old ship, but they won't be back home until next month. I am going to try to take him to Damneck, where I was trained...if they'll let us in.
Trader Posted August 4, 2011 #4 Posted August 4, 2011 Too many people crammed into a very small area. Hey you could always have a relaxing day at the beach in China! Can you imagine going to the bar for a cold one and trying to find your family?
Monty Posted August 4, 2011 Author #5 Posted August 4, 2011 Rob, Thanks for the offer. If schedule permits, dinner and/or drinks sounds good...and of course, ice cream. We are staying at the Newcastle.
