[Rhodes22-list] Rhendezvous Rain-out (nearly) Report

[Clarke, Donald R (Don), NPONS]

Hi All,

Am I frustrated. Jeanne and I were looking forward to seeing you all but Mother Nature truly did us in. Though you all did well. As it turned out we had a serious leak in and around the CB that had to be fixed. Thanks to Jim we managed to fix it so we are ready again. I am frothing at the mouth to see your new UPS. Looks great in the Pix's. Hope we can do something again soon when the weather is at least passable. Did you know we have not had a Sunny day since April 27th. Have we been move to Seattle? Not that either My Son says they have more Sunny days then us too. What's the story??

Let's try again!!!!

morning.  
	Tina, Babe and I went to the Chestertown Tea Party on Saturday, lots
of arts & crafts, food (good crab cakes) and music groups.  The Sultana
wooden schooner was there at the Marina, a sail was scheduled for later that
day.  Babe and the dock Goose "Lucy" got acquainted, amicably on both sides
I think.  The Chester River was high, over the bulkheads at the marina, so
Babe was anxious to wade as far as the leash would allow to meet Lucy.  
	Mariner's Motel is one of the few "pet friendly" places in the area,
so I guess I shouldn't complain....but when I made reservations they asked
if I wanted a smoking or non smoking room.  After checking in, it was very
obvious that it was a smoking room, but no changes could be made.  Oh well,
the search for a Babe friendly inn goes on.
	The Sunday sail was the highlight of the weekend, our first sail of
the season.  Somehow the hiking stick no longer holds, anyone know how to
fix them?  The yammer worked great, still think the tiller mounted remote
for the 9.9 is the way to go.
	The attached pictures are in order, Fretless1 through FretlessA,
will try the whole bunch at once.  Mary Lou could probably describe the UPS
setup pictures better, since she was the bow crew.  After the UPS was up on
Fretless., the only way to keep up was wing on wing....I need to think about
preventers.
