Well as Realtor you probably know your own town but as a Jamaican born New York raised and Military brought to VA Loan Officer you might not.  My girl friend move from Mary Land to VA and we decided to start a work out program.  To be quite honest I have put on a lot of weight since getting out of the Navy. Some one had referred the Newport News Park and because I have drove through there before I thought it might not be a bad idea.  So this morning after dropping our girls off to School we went to the park.

I wanted to find out about renting a picnic area for my daughters birthday so we decide to stop at the visitors center.  When we pulled into the parking place we were right in front of a plague that displayed the history of Newport News.  I never knew it was so rich in history and before I demean that I would rather blog about the history of Newport News when I either right down what the plaque says or do some research.

 After leaving the visitors center and started on my trail each step  took was a reminder of the history with marking of the fight that took place here.  I could not help but to wonder how may people lost their life her in fight for what they felt was freedom.  Because in the end isn't that what we all fight for, isn't that what we all join the military to protect.  If not why fight.  As I struggle to loose this weight our boy and girl struggle oversees while our commander in chief enjoy life with is family. AWWWWWWWWWe but let me not go there because I am talking about VA.

So let me do my research, learn my town and then I will let you guys in.
