USS Lexington

Mitchell and I headed out to visit the USS Lexington - a retired aircraft carrier. :) We had a great time exploring the whole floating museum and watched an IMAX movie about Red Flag - the US Air Force's version of the Navy's Top Gun program. Pretty neat! I grew up climbing all over the Lex so it was awesome to show Mitchell one of my favorite places.

 There's the Lex!

 The long walk up to the bay doors...

 Mitchell couldn't resist this massive anti-aircraft gun. Don't worry, it isn't functional. 

 My best impression of General George S. Patton

Mitchell's more accurate version of Patton... less smiling. :)

 Me sitting in the Captain's Chair!

 "Are you sure I'm doing this right?"

I can't wait to marry this guy!
