Well, the time has finally come! Time to say goodbye to Virginia, the Navy and some very wonderful people. Conveniently, I had some good company on the leaving-Virginia adventure. We decided to throw a joint BBQ as a way to say a proper goodbye.

Among our little group, we were lucky enough to have a grill master, Mr. Eddie Clarke, who cooked up some delightful BBQ fare of hot dogs, ribs, chicken breasts, and burgers.
We had a pretty good turnout....
our warrant officer and one of the (most cheerful!) ship's doctors stopped by to bring Stacy, Eddie and I some very thoughtful gifts:) Handmade awards and CVN-77 wine (that exists!!).
That is face paint! She's awesome. |
Even our Duty section watch officer showed up....so that him and Josh could compare muscles. ha!
These two on the left even brought their own homemade beer......best BBQ gift, ever. |
Although I'm sure I could just eat all day, someone was thoughtful enough to bring entertainment so we started up some corn hole...
I coincidentally suck at corn hole...and proceeded to use amazing moves like this one to thoroughly lose...
Overall, we all had a great time...I think Loki would agree...
Despite the the fact that I have been looking forward to this day for quite some time, I will certainly miss the people that I met in the Navy. Thanks to everyone who came out to say goodbye!! We couldn't have asked for a better send off!
