SEEING THESE SHIPS BRINGS THE LITTLE BOY OUT OF MEN:
A FAVORATE OF MINE, THE APPLEDORE , WHICH MY SISTER AND HUGGY SAILED IN OFF THE COAST OF KEY WEST, FLORIDA
SOME OF THE WINDJAMMERS, HAVING NO MOTORS, DEPEND ON SMALLER DORIES TO LEAD THEM IN AND OUT OF THE HARBOURS WHERE THE SAILS TAKE OVER:
HUGGIES COFFEE CUP – NO MORE GUESSING HOW HIGH TO FILL IT ! ! !
BEING A 3-DAY FESTIVAL – THEIR WAS PLENTY OF FESTIVITES TO OCCUPY ANYONES MIND, INCLUDING MY OWN. DAY ONE STARTED WITH A DELISH BREAKFAST, OF BLUBERRY PANCAKES, SAUSAGE, JUICE, MAINE MAPLE SYRUP,
AND A BOWL OF LAUGHS.
LATER IN THE MORNING THEY HAVE WHAT IS CALLED “THE CRATE RACE” WHERE THE YOUNG ONES TRY TO SCOOT ACCROSS MAYBE 15 TO 20 LOBSTER STORAGE TRAPS, FLOATING BETWEEN 2 POINTS MOST FALLING IN THE “DRINK” AFTER MAYBE 3 TRAPS . . . AN EXCEPTION, CONNER I BELIEVE HIS NAME IS DID THE RUN MAYBE 5 TIMES. . .
OTHER HIGHLIGHTS – LINDA BEAN’S RSTAURANT, SHE IS THE GRAND DAUGHTER OF LL HIMSELF:
THE DAY ENDED WITH A DELISH CHICKEN BBQ, PREPARED BY SIS AND HUGGY. ALL I CAN SAY IS DBL YUM YUM – DELISH
WHILE DRIVING OUT OF TOWN WE SPOTTED THIS PIC OF LOBSTER TRAPS STORED BELOW FLOWER BOXES: IT KINDA DISCRIBES THE ENTIRE WEEKEND – BYE FOR NOW……….
