the Intrepid is permanently docked in NYC
This past Memorial Day Weekend my husband Tom and I decided to venture into the city for a day. As we drove down the West Side Highway we remembered (and saw) that it was Fleet Week. We decided to park and walk on over to the Hudson River and check it out. Fleet Week is an annual event and being able to see and actually board some the ships was an incredible experience. Many of the service men and women were also on hand to talk, meet, and receive thanks from the thousands of visitors. It was indeed a rare opportunity.

To all our service men and women...
Thank you for your continued sacrifices, dedication, and service.
