[Rhodes22-list] Boat Show Get Together

[Chris Geankoplis]

Hmm,
         Sounds interesting!  Alice and I are willing to put together a
page, with peoples favorite pictures in a slide show format, with perhaps
some links to peoples stories.  There are many of them out there.  It would
be "quick and dirty" as we will be involved in getting our other boat into
the water and off to the Bahamas.  We do have several days this week and
next to begin the process.  So send what you have to the attached email,
and if you have any ideas on content, formatting, or presentation please
let me know (perhaps along with an offer to help?)
