Memorial Weekend

Memorial Weekend was a challenge weather wise.  When sailing, the best made plans are always weather dependent.  While we had plans for a cruise to Block Island or the Elizabeth Islands, stiff winds, high seas and lots of rain kept us in the Narraganset for the weekend.  Fortunately, we were able to share good food and drink with our friends, Dennis and Sue, visit the Herreshoff museum (pics below) and catch Leo in the Great Gatsby.  Monday showed itself to be a better day.  After a sail in the Bristol area, we wandered over to Potter's cove for lunch on the hook.  What a difference the sun makes. While we are off the boat for the next week to be with the kids, we are looking forward to John joining us as our first guest of the season.     The pics below are some of the classic yachts on display at the Herreshoff Museum in Bristol.  An amazing display of design, engineering, innovation and just plain beauty.
