Been down at Orange Beach this week as a last hurrah before school starts. Drove into Mobile to go see the USS Alabama. The park wasn't too crowded since I think most schools have already started. It was blazing hot but still really cool to see again. My dad took my brother and I here in the mid-80's, back when you could still use the manual controls to move the AA guns and also climb all over the tanks and planes.
Went all the way up to the tip of the bow of the ol girl and caught an awesome pic.
Then we went to the aircraft museum, and they had an SR-71. Saw the be in San Diego a few years ago at the flight museum but it didn't have any info. The science behind. The SR-71 is pretty cool...especially since it is now outdated.
Well worth the stop if you ever have a chance to go. Oh and no way in H E double hockey sticks would you ever get me to serve on a submarine. The USS Drum is a tin can with bombs in board. No thank you! Lotta respect for the submariners.
