On Wednesday, 3/20/2002, we left Seattle and headed out toward Port Angeles and Olympic National Park. On the way, we passed the port of Bremerton, which is home to much of the moth-balled fleet. This is one of the three aircraft carriers (CV 61, CV 62 Independence and the other one looked older, but I'm not sure of its penant number) that dwarfed the parking lot outside of the secured area. I had hoped to see some of the Iowa class BBs, but no such luck!
