Happy July 4th!

SIR YES SIR!

This is the chant over and over, "SIR YES SIR"!  Very cool and very intimidating!  They are standing at the entrance to our campground which is where they run an obstacle course.  We woke up to the Navy Boys yelling/screaming at those who were finishing the course.

Just a few hundred yards from the CG is Sea Bee Beach.  It's very small and used mostly for fishing.  Apparently tonight the boys in blue will load a barge with fireworks and light up the Severn River sky.  If the beach isn't too crowded and if AD isn't too scared we'll try to watch the sky from there.

This is the only bench on the beach

We strolled around more of the Navy Base this morning.  We ran into so many different groups of soldiers (never know what to call them cuz we're not sure who they are).  We watched a few drills beginning with how to disrobe in correct order (cap, blouse, belt).  Then they ran a different obstacle course.  

Down to t-shirts

AD was nervous

Their cute little boats all lined up.  Guys in lower right are putting the fireworks together for tonight's show.

So ... as most of you know there is this Hurricane floating out in the Atlantic.  We're on standby to hopefully work flood claims should there be enough to go around.  We probably won't know more about that until Sunday-Monday.  We'll spend the weekend here finishing up our Maryland files and be ready to go anywhere.

Until we know more,  Peace & Love & Pray for Storms!
