Yesterday, my nephew and I went to the USS Arizona Exhibit at the State Capital. Too few artifacts! Of interest to both of us was an aerial photo of Pearl Harbor. I pointed out the locations of my old office, base entrances, surface ships, oilers, subs, dry dock, etc. Also, where the salvage ships (w possible Navy SEALS) were berthed. (He has repeatedly said that's what he wants to be when he grows up. And, I hope not!)

Afterwards, we headed on over to the ST Exhibit. It was cool but somewhat disappointing. Mainly, it was costumes and models of all the USS Enterprises, including the current carrier. We both sat in the Captain's chair (Picard's), and had our pic taken in the transporter room. On the way home, we critiqued all the prior events we had attended and ranked them in "awesomeability". Naria was #1, Titanic was #2, and James Bond tied w ST. We left out the dinosaurs, computer, and grossology exhibits.
