Family Vacation... Part 1


Our family just got back from a wonderful summer vacation where we had the opportunity to see many new and exciting things! We counted that we traveled through 11 different states and also DC, so we definitely covered lots of miles! We did so many things that I have decided to break the vacation down into a few parts. Part 1 is our visit with good friends Steve, Barbara and Davis Fleming in West Point, NY. What a great time there! We had never been to their home in West Point (where they live on post), so we thought that it was about time for a visit. I think that we were all amazed at just how beautiful it is there! The first thing that we did there was go to their 4th of July celebration at Trophy Point, where we listened to the Army Band play patriotic music, watched great fireworks, and just had a wonderful time catching up with the Flemings and taking in the beauty of Trophy Point overlooking the Hudson River. Another day we got to go on the official tour of West Point and hear more about the history... very interesting! Then Steve took us all on more of a behing the scenes look at some of the campus. We very much enjoyed our visit to West Point and spending time with good friends!
