USS Texas

The rest of the week with Cody was great. On Tuesday we went to the Bluebell Ice cream factory in Brenham. Cody had fun, but the best part was the ice cream at the end of the tour. How can you turn that down. Cody also learned that in Houston, everything is a drive. He got used to bringing his stuff with him on trips because he knew we would be in the car at least 20 to 30 minutes, most of the time more. After the ice cream factory we went to our local pool where Cody met a neighbors grandson. They became fast friends and the rest of the week they went to the pool together everyday. On Thursday we went to the USS Texas. What a blast. It is so cool to be able to turn the guns up and down and around and to actually see how they would have worked. Of course there was no ammunition, so it wasn't as cool as Cody would have liked, but still fun. Touring the ship was great
