A Little Shakin' -- A Little Lookin'

So our day started out on Monday by discovering the refrigerator was not cooling as it should.  Granted, we are in a hot-temp climate, but this does not seem enough reason for the 'fridge to not get cooler!  So after contacting to the maker for a number to call for warranty work, we made an appointment with a local dealer.  However, not until Tuesday a.m.  So the logical thing seemed to be "go be a tourist"!  We drove to Corpus Christi to go aboard the USS Lexington.  MOST interesting, and especially when comparing it to the USS Carl Vinson, on which Ken did a "Tiger Cruise" several years ago.  The Lexington was a grand ship in its day!  Of course, we happened to choose a day when the wind was blowing in off the Gulf in a rather hardy manner.  

                                                

Being on the flight-deck in 40mph wind made it difficult to really stay out ther to see some of the jets on display.

And who really needs a hairstyle, anyway?!  (That's why I am not in the picture!!!) 

A late lunch/early supper at Blackbeards, then off to the ballpark.  We watched the AA farm-team for Houston play against an Oakland farm-team.  The Corpus Christi/Houston team lost, but the evening was great fun.  And what a beautiful ballpark they have. 

Tuesday was refrigerator repair day, most of it spent on the phone with either the repair company or the manufacturer, but I think we have it all under control now.  Original plans to do a little fishing in the Gulf at Goose Island had to take a backseat and will be on the Wednesday list!
