[Rhodes22-list] Annapolis Good Old Boat Regatta

Tue Sep 21 22:19:58 EDT 2004

Nice idea Ed but this year is out. I've got to be home Sat. night on the 
2nd for a big library event the next day (sigh - I hate it when work 
interfere's with sailing!) and we'll be in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia on the 
9th.  Besides Stan's probably working on the 9th.
