Graduation Day

Way behind with updating this!!!  Computer pretty much crashed on me - called for help and had to reset to original settings!  Lost Picasa, where I edit all my pictures, and the program is no longer available!

So.........Sunday was graduation day for our beautiful grand daughter!  The ceremony was not scheduled until later in the afternoon, so Dennis took us for a quick tour of the Rock Island Arsenal, where he works............

"The Rock Island Arsenal comprises 946 acres located on Arsenal Island, originally known as Rock Island, on the Mississippi River between the cities of Davenport, Iowa, and Rock Island, Illinois.  The primary mission of the Rock Island Arsenal is to provide logistical and manufacturing support for the United States Armed Services.  The Rock Island Arsenal is the largest government-owned weapons manufacturing facility in the United States and is home to the Army's only active foundry ..............
