Thats so crazy, I was just crossing the bridge when the ship went by. Kinda feels cool to know I was present for the 1st one of 2008.

Even from all the way over in Iraq, thats a beautiful picture. When I was living in Fishers Landing I took many pics of the ships. Now that we are on the Water in Clayton, I know my family is looking forward again to watching those ships sail by. Thanks for the pics of Home....
