Bama JeanJean and Papa Wisan

 It only took 3 1/2 years to convince my Dad that he hasn't seen everything in the DC area and that it might be worth coming out again. Somehow I was able to convince him that it's OK to take a trip to the same place twice, that's not Lake Powell of course, and that doesn't involve golf. Believe it or not, I think he had a great time, saw new things, and realized how grateful he is he doesn't have to deal with VA traffic on a daily basis.   
 We spent the weekend visiting Williamsburg, Yorktown, and Jamestown.

 

We went to Annapolis to tour the Naval Academy.
We were lucky enough to be there when the freshman become sophomores.  In order to make thing official the freshman have to create a human ladder to the top of the statue and replace the hat.  The sophomores cover the statue with lard.  We didn't see the hat replacement.  It took just over two hours. 
He liked Grandpa reading him books every night
 By the end of the trip Connor was done with museums and preferred reading books on the floor

We were lucky enough to have "bama jeanjean" stay a few extra days, which was so very nice.  It was a much different pace that when Grandpa was here.  One of the highlights was Frying Pan Park.  Connor loved it!
