Saturday Pix

*****

Saturday evening, we had a cookout on the fantail on Taney.

Scott Armstrong, our museum volunteer coordinator, cooks hamburgers and hot dogs on the grill.

Everyone enjoyed the great food and sea stories!

 

Of course, Gunz couldn't resist taking a turn at the grill...

When was the last time you saw a Senior Master First Class Gunners Mate cooking on a grill?

 

Heather Armstrong, John Kill and Scott Armstrong review pictures taken by John in the Bow Buoyancy Tank - the steel is rotting away in several areas and will need serious restoration work.

 

Before everyone left, Jon Krup had a special announcement to make.........

that he was retiring the set of overalls that he has worn to every work weekend that he has attended!!

They were pretty worn out, so it was time. But we're trying to figure out how we're going to recognize John without the overalls!!

 

Big Al Becker and Tim Calvert enjoy each others company, as they always do!

That's all the pix for now. Tomorrow (Sunday) is cleanup day. Many of the gang are headed out early to travel home. Our sincerest thanks go to each of you who made this work weekend possible.  If you didn't make it to the work weekend this time, hopefully we'll see you at the next one!
