Steamboat Time!

thinkxingu · 09-07-2024, 03:42 PM

I know a lot of people have posted about missing the steamboats up in the north, so I thought I'd post that it's steamboat week!

They are set up at Lee's Mills, and a great place to anchor to watch them is circled on this photo.

Feel free to ask any question, and I'll help if I can—we're in Hanson Cove.

Also, feel free to drop off a bag of cash while you're up there.

Cheers!

Are they going to have the parade to 19 Mile Beach this year? And if so, do you know when? Is there a schedule somewhere?

Yes! All the details are here (screenshot below):

Thank you. I think it used to be on a Wednesday if they had one.

Can't resist. They always have a Wednesday.

Doesn't that just show you how things are misunderstood?

Favorite time of the year!! But the wind is looking like it might make for a very bouncy trip today. Might have to wait until next weekend unfortunately. Might try to drive over today and maybe hit a place to eat on the way back, or just stay home and get all the stuff that we need to get done and don't have time for (and watch the Pats Game)

For anyone who hasn't seen them, here's a series of videos I made in 2010:
