On Sunday, since J.R.'s parents and brother were down to visit, we decided to take a little drive down to La Porte, Texas. Home of Battleship USS Texas and Monument. J.R. and his Dad were both in the Navy, and David is a history buff so this was a good idea! It was kind of cool to see all of it. Pat and I stayed behind and let the boys go on the ship. It was a beautiful day out!
The monument was huge! Surrounding it - is prairie grass! They had signs stating that they let the grass grow tall to preserve a natural state like the old days.
Just a few feet ahead, there was another sign that said to "watch out for wildlife" 
then we see this guy. Is that what they meant by wildlife? LOL.

J.R. and his Dad were being silly. Here is Navy Seaman J.R. and Captain Al!
Afterwards, we were kinda thirsty and put SONIC in the Garmin. It made us take the Ferry across. Which was a pretty cool experience if you've never had to do that before! The GPS was making us laugh since it showed us directly on the water.
