    Yesterday, the USS Constitution – aka “Old Ironsides” – sailed under its own power for only the second time in 130 years.  The previous time was in 1997.'Old Ironsides' sets sail in Massachusetts

    They were talking about getting the ship fit to sail again when I visited it it 4 years ago.  I am glad to see they managed it, the NPS budget gets gutted quite frequently.
