Tour de Dam Neck
Total for this ride: 10.7 miles
Total for this year: 1398.2 miles
Not much of a ride. Just some exploring on the base where I stayed during my vacation in Virginia Beach. Pretty much rode on every street inside the gate with the exception of those which were specifically marked as off limits. Saw lots of different schools - some for weapons training, some (apparently) for tactics, some for intelligence. Also saw what appeared to be weapon system testing facilities. Of course, the big reason why the family decided to stay here was the incredible beach. It's huge, it's clean, there's great swimming, and there are no crowds. Spending some time there this week reminded me why my mother would take us there as often as possible during the summers when I was growing up in the area. It's really a neat place.

And it's why your sister continued the tradition with your nephews when they were young...and when they were older and able to join us! I love that beach and have very happy memories of countless days spent there. So happy you were able to join us this year!
