Where were we this weekend?

This could be just about anywhere in New England. But....it wasn't just anywhere!!

We traveled to West Point, NY for the Army/Air Force Football game!! We were sooooo excited to go especially since Air Force had beaten Navy

Marty will have her picture taken with just about anybody!!! A couple of West Point Cadets!!

The game ball being parachuted in. In front of "The Corp"!! Pretty cool!!

The Air Force Band and Cadets gathering below the Superintendent of Cadets guest box!! Nope that's not where we sat.

West Point Cadets....."The Corp!!!"

Army scores!! One cannon shot for each point!! Hold on to your britches!!

End zone in front of Air Force seating...obviously not ours!

Air Force in the dark jerseys!! What a perfect football day!!

Army scores again!! Don't worry...just field goals!!

One of many happy Air Force fans!! Guess who??!?!


Just about half time. 21-16 Air Force!!

 



 
 













We tried our hand at a self portrait





















Another self portrait...it's not as cold as it might look...a perfect football day!!

44-22 Air Force winning and the seats are beginning to thin...except the Cadets who have to stay for every painful minute!!


FINAL Air Force 44-22 and the Commander in Chief's Trophy!!




A passenger train from New York City headed north.

Overlook West Point US Military Academy along the Hudson River in New York.

Breakfast at the Blue Colony Diner!! This has been featured on the "Drive-ins, Diners & Dives" TV show.
