We've been in Annapolis for 6 days. Two of those days we just hunkered down because of strong winds & rain. When that was behind us, we ventured into town to see the Noon formation of the Brigades at the United States Naval Academy. It is an impressive gathering complete with Honor Guard, Presentation of the Colors, the Naval Academy Drum & Bugle Corp and the many Brigades of Midshipmen attending the Academy. I took numerous photos of the formation, but this shot of the Drum & Bugle Corp in front of the Color Guard really made me appreciate the dedication these young men & women have to the job of protecting our country. We are very fortunate to have these young people in America.
Fair winds & Smooth sailing,
Elaine & Lawrence S/V Elle & I
