Ship (Kind Of), Take 2

I got another shot at the ship in Norfolk! I was actually the FIRST one at the light when it turned red...

So you can see it a tiny bit better than you could in the other photo.

Ship (Kind of)

This is a shot I've tried to get with three LVs now...

On the way home from the Norfolk campus, there's an intersection where, if you have perfect timing with the light and how many cars are stopped in front of you and it's a clear day, you can get a pretty good picture of the ship right in front of you. With Peanut Butter, I had perfect timing but it was such a drizzly, hazy day, it didn't work. With Georgie, I never once had the right timing, despite having at least half a dozen attempts. Yesterday, I didn't have quite perfect timing and I only got one shot at it before the light turned green and I had to go back to being a responsible driver, so it's not a good picture... but maybe I'll be able to try again today.

I know... you don't see a ship. The very top is right over the middle of Piper's head, under the stoplight. Like I said... not a good picture.

Here's another picture that isn't very good:

This is a church right next to MacArthur Mall, taken from the parking garage. I do like that about Norfolk: the old buildings mixed in with the new.

Spring is Sprung

What a gorgeous couple of days we're having here in Virginia Beach! We visited my in-laws' house and had some fun in the backyard:

Beautiful blooming tree!

On the dock shortly before sunset

So many oysters! They're good for filtering the Bay.

More beautiful blooms

This one's on the way home, sitting in traffic.
We're very near one of the military bases, so the jets fly pretty low
over this part of the city. (It looks enormous in person, but in a photo
it kind of looks more like a bug...)

It's supposed to be another gorgeous day today! Low 70s, sunny... ahhh, so nice after all that snow that Georgie had to put up with.
