USS New York (LPD 21)

I have to be up very early tomorrow to head down to New York. I thought about going tonight, but my plans got away from me (yeah, yeah what a surprise).

As we say here in Boston "It's no word of a lie that I am wicked excited."

Despite telling me several times that he was not going, I found out today that the Ogre is already in New York. So I will try to hook up with him once I get there.

I'm not completely sure where I am going or where I am going to park....so I really, really want to find the Ogre and make myself his responsibility.

You can watch the festivites on FoxNews. For more info on the commissioning go here.

The LPD-17 class is finally coming online. I expect that the USS New York will be a tipping point, so enjoy the festivities.

Maggie, they made it interesting at the end BUT - Navy 23 Notre Dame 21. Gotta love THAT, huh?

It was a great event and the driving was fine both ways.

Will - I didn't plan very well....we could have met for chocolate on my way through Connecticut!
