Just when you get feeling like you are getting old, something happens to put age in perspective. At the end of a full day (ate and drank our way across Boston to maintain decent wifi connection) we finished up our tour of downtown with a stop at the USS Constitution "Old Ironsides" - the oldest active naval vessel (still afloat, goes out several times a year, manned/maintained by active US Navy personnel).
A vessel that is many times my age (you guess the factor), but still gives one goosebumps when you see her up close up. Got the full tour. One of those days you are especially proud to be an American. See the web album for some pics.
