Blog 2 Sub museum. Lyman Allyn

Sunday consisted of visiting the Sub Museum, home to the "Nautilus", the first nuclear powered sub, and in between, having lunch with Todd and Karna Millen, he a former student, and now teaching music at a private school, and Karna plays trombone with the US Coast Guard Band.

It is a wonderful museum, vastly improved over the former site, and 

Susan and I had the whole sub to ourselves.
