Seafair Fleet Week

This morning the Northwest Pugh's took off for an exciting adventure at the Port of Seattle. This week is Seafair and one of the best things about Seafair is Fleet Week. Every year the Navy brings in ships and allows the public to tour the vessels. We were able to head down and tour 2 guided missle cruisers, a 400 ft Coast Guard vessel, and a Vietnam era river boat. The river boat was the boys favorite. They had a .50 caliber machine gun in back and twin turret mounted .50 caliber machine guns in the front that the boys got to play with. Basically we had our very own family re-enactment of Apocolypse Now.
Curtis mans the rear guns keeping an eye out for some guy named Charlie?

This was too natural a position for Trevor and now he can't decide if he wants to be Army or Navy. We told him he can be either one as long as Elder comes first.

The forward deck of the USS Shoup. That's one big gun.

Trevor and Curtis next to the USS Shoup. No sign of Tajee, I think she's off chatting up the sailors. The ladies love a man in unifrom.


We had a great time seeing some our nations military vessels and interacting with the brave Marines and Sailors who give so much to keep our nation free. We appreciate their sacrifice and the example that they are to all of us. God Bless America.
