    Well, that's excusable ... but then you have (I won't mention names here to protect the guilty) some goofy N. Carolina LEO dufe who had to sneak off into the woods to BURY his firearm 'cause he forgot he was carrying until he was ready drive across the Canuckian border.

    DD, there is some amazing history at the Military Aviation Museum (https://militaryaviationmuseum.org/) - all of their planes fly regularly and you can walk right up to them.

    The Army Transportation Museum (https://transportation.army.mil/museum/) is another neat place.

    Like Arty said, the lighthouse is worth a visit, just get there as early as they will let you if it is a sunny day!

    If you go to Jamestown, may want to leave time to go back and forth on the free ferry there: https://www.virginiadot.org/travel/ferry-jamestown.asp.

    The battleship Wisconsin is worth a visit too - in Norfolk.

    Sounds like we'll miss each other (we'll be down for July 4th weekend), otherwise we'd gladly put you up for an evening/day at the beach. If you go to the beach and want to avoid the crowd, definitely head for the higher numbered streets away from the boardwalk.
