So on Tuesday we got up early to go for some puzzle time at Bama Ed's site, before we headed off to NAS. The Naval Air Station is about 30 mins away, and garneska and the DH were gracious enough to provide us with transportation. We processed thru the gate and proceeded to the museum, where we were greeted by a sign "Air Show Practice Cancelled."
They might as well told me Christmas was cancelled. I was really bummed, had the camera and large lens ready to go, hoping for some awesome shots.
So we entered the museum and after agreeing on a meeting time to leave, we headed out to tour. The place is enormous, and there is a second hanger bay that we also toured.

Another WW2 Pacific Display
There are plenty more photo's from the museum. Just a taste for now. We then left there and headed back to the campground. Later we met up with garneska and DH for a quick photo session with the Rockstar Mallory.
These are just a couple of the shots taken that evening, but not the best ones.
Spent the evening visiting with folks again and enjoying the company. Sadly garneska and DH leave tomorrow.
