What a great day...
....for a boat ride on the Potomac River!
Yesterday the temperature hit 70F, or very close, and the winds were just strong enough to put a little chop on the water. A perfect day for a boat ride on the Potomac. Our friends from Holland are here for a couple weeks, and they'd never seen DC by boat. Adri is up for boating, but his wife gets afraid on the water, so the ladies stayed behind. This is Adri's first time as skipper... http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2...oatTrip012.jpg A fairly recent addition to the Potomac waterfront is the 'Georgetown Riverfront'. What used to be an ugly, graffiti-covered, concrete wall has been replaced by a dock and several restaurants. A Starbucks very close makes for a nice place to take a break. http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2...oatTrip020.jpg Yesterday the traffic was light, but during the summer one might wait several hours for a place to tie up. The whole area makes for a pretty sight from the water. http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2...oatTrip020.jpg The Christmas Craft Fair at our church is rapidly approaching. One year I made a kresh and the ladies crosstitched the figures to go therein. They then auctioned the manger scene and made almost $500 on it. This year they're doing the same, so I got roped into another kresh. It's not boating related, but here's a picture. It's 24" wide, made from oak, with plywood floor and back. http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2...oatTrip008.jpg If anyone's interested in making one, let me know. I'll provide more details. There are no 'plans', I just found a picture I liked and went from there. -- A Harry Krause truism: "It's not a *baby* kicking, beautiful bride, it's just a fetus!" [A Narcissistic Hypocrite] |

John was just spelling it phonetically so you heathens would have a better time pronouncing it correctly. |

What is this obsession you have with John and others? You are one sick dude. |

You are one sick dude.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - He has an obsession with trying to make people believe that he has things, does things, more and better than anyone else. That's why he has been caught in so many lies about his life, his possessions, etc. He even lies about his wife's education and degree(s) (as well as his own!) |
