Fan Photos: LW in Newport Beach, HC with USS Iowa
Thanks to guests Debbie Gilia and Floyd Farrar for sending us these nice photos. Gilia's picture shows Lady Washington in silhouette after a Newport Beach sunset. Farrar's pic shows Hawaiian Chieftain in San Pedro with USS Iowa behind her. Of course, the battleship is much further away that she appears because of foreshortening. If you have photos to share, send them to photos@historicalseaport.org.
