I can't get any of any sort to come up about a marine or marina . web cam or nothing. is there something missing in that link.
No, I won't be there. Can't really change my work schedule easily. - and my LO said it was okay if no one was there for the event. Just feel bad -- have never missed anything for him before :( My daughter would have gone but he insisted it was okay. He has duty the next day anyway. Wish I could give him a hug but a cyber one will have to do.
Does anyone know if it can be seen on the web -- like they had for the departure? would like to be able to see it --
