Pictures Re: [Rhodes22-list] Barge in ice

[elle]

Mary Lou,

Great picture! What luck you were able to get a shot
of it. Judging from the weather reports for the next
36 hrs., it may not be the last barge spending some
time admiring the Eastern shore. ;^)

As busy as it can get at the marina (BOY was it
cold!..did I say that yet?? ;^) it is always
interesting to flip over to 22A & listen to the
securite alerts. Once in a while there is a good one
like this.

Thanks for going out & getting this one!

We can't change the angle of the wind....but we can adjust our sails.
