USS George H. W. Bush

We went to Norfolk, VA for the commissioning of the new George H. W. Bush aircraft carrier. Bec's grandfather served on the USS San Jacinto with George senior so we got great seats for the program... and cowboy hats!



Here we are on the flight deck of the new George H. W. Bush... with our new awesome hats.

That anchor weighs 60,000 lbs. The wind almost took Jason's hat to sea.

The ship is almost as long as the empire state building is tall. It was huge!!

Love the hats guys! How fun. That is great about your grandfather. He must be so proud!
