Captain Holly!

This morning we attended the ceremony for Holly to be pinned with her Captain's rank. We got to do the pinning. It was a nice, ceremony outside her work building. Col. Clark who was there when she became Lt was presiding.









Yesterday we attended the Tall Ships Festival in Tacoma. There were replicas of the HMS Bounty, the actual one used in the 1960s movie, and a replica of the Niña. Plus other large sailing ships.










The Niña.













Even Mt. Rainier came out for the show.













We are camped at Ft. Lewis' Travel Camp on American Lake. We haven't tried any lake adventures yet, but probably will.











We learned today that the flat tire we discovered on Sunday morning was caused by a piece of fireworks debris in the sidewall. Not repairable and not covered by the warranty. Bummer. $100 Bummer!

Oh, well, it's just part of the adventure!
