At the museum, we had our second annual blessing of the fleet this past Saturday. We invite all the folks that have built boats in our classes to bring them to a local beach for a blessing, mutual admiration, and mess about. We've been very fortunate both years (so far) to have exceptionally nice weather despite ominous forecasts. This past winter was way too long and way too depressing, which made the launching that much nicer. This pic was a sampling of folks that gathered this year. We're still working on getting the plastic yaks owner to build her own boat...maybe next winter.
