We had a great time today - great weather again. I think I could get use to warm weather and sunny skies while at home it is cold and rainy - or even sleet.

The activity was a trip to the Naval Air Museum on the Pensacola Navy Air Station. We got on the base and were surprised and pleased to find that the Pensacola Lighthouse was also on the base grounds. So that was the first stop of the day.

Here are Faye on the left and Justine on the right. We watched the Pats game last night and I found out that both of them dig off the their nail polish when things are a little stressful - a modern day version of nail biting.  In the photo they are both showing off there new nail polish applications.

And we all climbed the 177 steps to the top of the lighthouse. It is a beautiful walk to the top.

As you can see it is a wonderful view of the coast

It is great to see the lenses of the light as it is a working light. The lenses is turning and the light is fixed in the middle.

Here we all are with the coast of Florida and the Gulf of Mexican in the background.

We did enjoy the naval air museum.
This is the first naval airplane - and we say a lot more older and modern planes.

This statue representing the transition of pilots through the beginning to now was most interesting and skillfully done.

Apparently this Japanese Zero is one of only about 16 left - which seems very amazing.

 

There is a famous seafood market in Pensacola - Joe Patti's

 

 It was an amazing place with a monstrous variety of fish and seafood.

The next block over was Joe Patti's restaurant - it was needed as it was late in the day and it was good.

We all went back to our boat to watch some more football. So time to say ....................

Good Night and May God Bless
