Since today is Memorial Day in the United States, Bill and I went to Wilmington, NC which is about 2 hours from where we live, and visited the USS NC Memorial, (you can click that link for more information). I took a bunch of shots on the ship but I figured this would do for now, since I just got home. The first shot is of the guns at the top of the pic pointing at the signal flags and sky. I hope everyone had a great weekend and Happy Memorial Day!

About Me
- Carver
- My original site, Carver's Sight or is that Site, was inspired by reading the blogs of people who I got to know through the Melanoma Patient's Information Page (MPIP). As time has gone on, I find myself talking as much about gardening, photography, and other random thoughts as I do about melanoma follow up. I am happy about that. I have set up an additional site, Carver Cards, which is primarily a photoblog.

Great shots from the battleship. Memorial Day is without a doubt one of the most important holidays, just like Remembrance day is here in Canada.
Have a great week.

Fantastic shots, as always, and it is such an important holiday! Thanks for sharing and have a great week!
What an awesome photo - those clouds are incredible. And I love the little flags flapping in the wind. Great shot!
That first shot is impressive with the windswept clouds, and flying flags and guns pointing to the view. Well done.
EXCELLENT SHOTS! This post thrilled me because my daughter and I were there last month and were amazed and blown away by the USS NC. I love these perspectives.
A very important day. The first shot is too good.
