Tall Ships!

I am sore. Who would have thought hauling up sails is HARD! ): Or that the worst part about balancing on a yard arm 40 ft up is that you're balancing on your stomach, which, for me at least, starts to feel really uncomfortable pretty shortly.


Anyway, I took a lot of photos yesterday, and so far have only gotten around to putting five or six up. But here's a preview:


Picture of the Day



And now, I've got to go back to the Tall Ship festival to pretend I know what I'm talking about for the masses. (:

40 ft was a wild guess at the height of the main course, I did go all the way up to the top top and hang out up there a bit.

I was joking with me mum that while you have the twin sparrows, I should get a tattoo of a sparrow toenail or something. (:

I hope sometime when you're down here something is going on at the harbour and you can skylark the rigging with me.

For sure Bud I would love to Skylark with ya, and maybe we will even scuttlebutt a bit.
