Erin's Tribute to Thomas, Her Grandfather

Back in June, I met Erin on the subway, and she shared this section of her inner forearm:<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwGKZT5pekPJ6u7CoCpa76YnBlVg7ymF_xje3jFbK36ZQbCW6-X0HbxHjAGNrgabOuFVcC32rNAhrqgp9cbcC5uhHzTFQjZWNzmH5IsLqWDBjnHzQuZm2kHHwfJDn6yGW2NP4sVx6Tik8/s1600/erin+anchor+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwGKZT5pekPJ6u7CoCpa76YnBlVg7ymF_xje3jFbK36ZQbCW6-X0HbxHjAGNrgabOuFVcC32rNAhrqgp9cbcC5uhHzTFQjZWNzmH5IsLqWDBjnHzQuZm2kHHwfJDn6yGW2NP4sVx6Tik8/s640/erin+anchor+1.jpg" width="248" /></a></div><br /> This tattoo is a tribute to her grandfather, Thomas, who served in the U.S. Navy.<br /> <br /> The work was done at High Street Tattoo in Columbus, Ohio.<br /> <br /> Erin explained:  <br /> <blockquote>"I just told [the artist] that I wanted something that would relate to the Navy, I guess, so that's the anchor.
