Day Four - Military Tuesday

Today we traveled an hour and half south to Danville VA to go visit the AAF Tank Museum. It was sort of an homage to Jeff's video game, Call of Duty.

It was definitely a long trip for the museum. Honestly, I don't know if it was worth the long ride, but if you are ever in the area definitely stop by. But, keep in mind that the main part of the museum does NOT have AC, so it can be a little warm (and it was for us today).

It was hard to take pictures since a flash could not be used, but I tried to capture what we had seen but, most were blurry so I can't show the images. Anyhow, in the museum there were sections dividing the different displays. They had sections showing the different uniforms, guns/weapons, patches, awards, posters, magazine articles and of course tanks ranging from the first wars to Dessert Storm. It was definitely an educational type of day.

The tanks were huge!

After checking out the museum, we headed back to the hotel for the afternoon. After supper, we made it back to Thunder Valley for the go-karts that we were suppost to go to yesterday for Zack. He had a blast! I tried to get Jeff to go out there, but he was a party pooper!

I had a slightly disturbing realization today. We were driving around, Jeff driving, me in the front passenger side and Zack in the back of the car. All of a sudden I hear "I kissed a girl and I liked it...." in a small voice singing along to the radio. My realization is this, I have a mini Jeff on my hands and he is just like his father. Oh geeze, please help me!

PS. Happy Anniversary Mom & Dad
