I got kidnapped!

One Saturday morning Ben woke me up early and said to pack some clothes, he was kidnapping me!! We drove for a couple of hours, I slept, and we ended up in Fort Story, Virginia! Ben was stationed here during the Army and has told me many stories of his time here. It was great to see his old stomping grounds and to be a part of the history.

this was the scenery during the drive and Ben kept saying, "don't look!"... I couldn't see anything if I tried!


this was a treat for us because we haven't had Little Caesars since AZ!!



this was Ben's lifeguard shack where he would sport his buffness and look for damsels in distress

a Kalmar he drove that would pick up crates off other trucks and trains

his favorite gas station that is similar to QT called WaWa

this was the new military housing they have built since Ben's been gone. I told him if we get in one of these, where do I sign??!!
