The last time I visited the Marine Corps Museum must have been in 2008 when we were in the area for Kevin's Officer Candidate School graduation. I was told that many exhibits had changed since then, and because it was a relatively nice day (low humidity and tolerable heat), I figured it was a good idea to take another peek! I invited my neighbor Stephanie to the museum in hopes of us both getting out of the house. She and I spend a lot of time at home, so it was nice to get out of our "caves." Enjoy a small portion of the photos taken yesterday...the photos don't do the museum justice; its amazing!
