| Alex guides Shadow towards the
ramp while dad goes to get the trailer. Little do Peter
and Alex know that this was their last sail of the 2011
Midwinters: Peter's knee would stiffen up over night, and
the Rahns ended up going back to Montreal Saturday
afternoon. ... |
 |
| Having picked up on a good
idea last year, Al gets set to move SHADES in beside Free Range Chick'n on
the Sam Chapin Beach. ... |
 |

| Al chats with Michele while
they wait for Tony and Richard to return with the
refreshments. ... |

Douma looking on, Uncle Al demonstrates his tape-less
method of installing virgin wool ticklers. ... |
 |
| Richard J. is duly ... ... |
 |
| ... impressed. ... |
 |

 |
| ... critiqued. ... |
 |
 |
| Before our planned dinner
at the Crazy Gator,
Mike and Dotty Murto will make sure our draft beer won't
run out. ... |

friend, Scott Tillema, a scow sailor of renown, with a
