Last Nights Boat Ride was a great time, and I want to
thank everyone who participated. We left the dock at
7PM with lots of beer, on a beuatify double deckered boat.
We were largely inside the upper deck, protected from the
couple of times it showered. The music was great, the
company was nothing short of the best. After the ride,
we went out to eat dinner at Liman's and had fresh fish.
We had Fluke, Octupus, and Stripped Bass. We finially
knocked off at around mid-night.
A few people asked by to do this again. It was lots of fun,
and Mike has some pic's. Anyone want to do it again? We
might aim for late Octomer.
