Yes I am back....
Wow looks like some drama......
Cabana boy and I were in the Great Country's Capitol for the last 8 days...
We stayed in Alexandria VA, first, not reall good que there...second awesome Irish pub...They also have fire flies...so my fifteen year old thinks I am completely crazy because those little flying faires were AWESOME.....

It was a busy time to be in D.C., when we landed the gun ban had been shot down, take that you fools! then the next day one of D.C. 's finest was murdered, the next day the catch the fool, the day after that the fool dies in jail...7 officers they are now "looking at" I say why? but that's just my .02....
I saw the President moving about town via..motorcade twice and via Airforce Helicopter a couple of times...
The memorials at the mall omg....
We went to GETTYSBURG on 7/2 which in 1863 they were fighing in GETTYSBURG....Little Round Top, Devils Den, Cemetary Hill...
July 4th we were at Mt. Vernon...another incredible experiance...
here are a couple of my pix from Arlington





one of my heros

Thank you all who serve and paid the ultimate price for this great Nation!
