Photographs from San Diego

Last August, the family visited San Diego for a very proud moment in our lives and especially my oldest son's life -- his graduation from Marine Corp boot camp.

I've struggled with a way to post pictures and still keep his privacy. I think I've figured out a way but first I want to show a couple of other pictures.

First, is a shot showing the fantastic colors and great weather we enjoyed.



(as with most pictures, click to enlarge)

Next is a picture from a little different angle, but it shows the care and precision exhibited in most things on the base.

This is the lawn in front of the "General's Building" as the Headquarter is know. I didn't see a single blade of grass that wasn't uniform in height and color. The color was a beautiful green that I only dream of having in my lawn at home.

And finally, a picture of my son. He will be easy to spot; he's the one in the uniform and short hair :)

Bob,

Something else we have in common. My son graduated last September.
