Mike's Pinning as Chief

Owen and I flew to Los Angeles for a short weekend to attend Bobbins' brother Mike's pinning as Chief Petty Officer in the Navy Seabees. Mark and his fam picked us up at LAX and drove us up to Pt. Mugu. Owen & I crashed in Mikey's room. I caught Mike getting a little shut-eye after his last night of hell week before the pinning.

It was cool to see all the guys go through and be a part of the ceremony. God bless Mike for his service to our great nation and Navy.
