Awesome. They do have a underwater museum there outside the gate. Have fun!
My folks met at the Bremerton Navy Yard in 1950 - he was a WWII Navy veteran employed as a draftsman and she worked the tool room counter. He winked at her and they dated, married for 42 years, raised two sons and have both since passed. I live about 35 miles from Bremerton myself.
Hi Everybody!

Bible in a Year : Job 22–24; Acts 11
Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. Colossians 3:15
“What do you think about peace?” my friend asked as we ate lunch together. “Peace?” I said, puzzled. “I’m not sure—why do you ask?” He answered, “Well, as you jiggled your foot during the church service I wondered if you’re agitated about something. Have you considered the peace God gives to those who love Him?”
That day some years ago, I was a bit hurt by my friend’s question, but it started me on a journey. I began exploring the Bible to see how God’s people embraced this gift of well-being, of peace, even in the midst of hardship. As I read Paul’s letter to the Colossians, I chewed over the apostle’s command to let the peace of Christ rule in their hearts (Colossians 3:15).
Paul was writing to a church he’d never visited but had heard about from his friend Epaphras. He was concerned that as they encountered false teaching, they were losing the peace of Christ. But instead of admonishing them, Paul encouraged them to trust Jesus, who would give them assurance and hope (v. 15).
We all will encounter times when we can choose to embrace or refuse the rule of Christ’s peace in our hearts. As we turn to Him, asking Jesus to dwell in us, He will gently release us from the anxiety and cares that weigh us down. As we seek His peace, we trust that He will meet us with His love.
What situations or relationships weigh on your mind and heart? How can you ask Jesus to bring you His peace?
Jesus, You give peace that passes all understanding. Help me embrace Your peace in every area of my life.
This is a beautiful base.
Deer will eat from your hand.

Beware the Marines in the woods.
Greetings to all at the Canteen!
To all our military men and women, past and present,
Two years ago my son who is a Sr. Chief, was able to give my wife and I a tour of his ship the USS Nimitz, which got back from its major deployment two months prior. It was awesome, so huge. Now he’s back in Hawaii for a second and last tour, before retirement.
