Rocket- Business Cat

I was trying out some new chairs for my office and Rocket LOVED one of the ones that I didn't like. He would sit all day in the chair, no matter where it was placed... This cat!

USS John C. Stennis 25th Reunion

It's not every day that an event like this happens and I am proud to say that I got to be a part of the fun!  25 years ago this week, the US Navy Aircraft Carrier, the USS John C. Stennis CVN-74 was commissioned. I was one of the crew that was stationed aboard along with my husband Terry.  As the Stennis was back in Norfolk, they invited the plank owners aboard to see the old girl. This was the day!

The hight before, we met a few of our close friends for dinner and drinks at the Norfolk Waterside area.

I can't post some of the pics from the inside of the ship, you know operational security and all! But here are some that I can share! 

Family Day at Hollins

Claire's college was hosting Family Day so Terry and I drove up and picked up her Dad (my brother Mike) on the way. She's a freshman at Hollins University and took us around campus and up to the Roanoke Star. We ended the weekend with a trip to Cracker Barrel!

An Evening of Poe

 What a lovely night at the Hunter House! (Victorian Museum in Norfolk - Link to site HERE) 

They hosted an Evening of Poe for Halloween and I just HAD to go! I love his work and the plan was to hear small sections read by various artists in different rooms in the house. We had such a great time!
