USS Yorktown

Jay and Miller were invited to go to camp out on the USS Yorktown in Charleston, SC, with our friends, Travis and Jay (and Travis' cub scout group). This was such a great experience for them! This is a picture heavy post but I figured I should just let the pictures do the talking!

This area used to be filled in with dirt. Once they started removing the dirt they found all the cannons and other artifacts intact.
