I think it is a great event which will showcase our fine city, and our fine members of the military

I'm hoping the rain holds off until after the game. Right now, the forecast indicates that it won't start raining until much later.

Nice, what type if ship is the last one?
That is the USS San Diego (LPD-22), a San Antonio-class amphibious transport dock.  Just arrived in town.
