Ahoy mates,
Fair weather is finally here and it's time to get out and enjoy it. This weekend is the regatta at Lake Delano in FDR State Park, Georgia. Capt. Sunshine & I will be getting there Friday afternoon and staying in cabin #6, so feel free to come on by. I've been on the horn several times with the park rangers this week and everything is ready to go. We are expecting a troop of scouts and the park is busy putting together a rain gutter regatta for them and we can expect some free sailing in the lake to be taking place as a result. The event kicks off around noon Saturday. The park is cooking dogs and providing cokes for us, one of FDR's favorite foods, and we should have a real good time. If you just want to come out for the day, there is a covered pavilion at the site and I believe it's a $5.00 per day park admittance fee per vehicle. It's around 100 miles East of Montgomery and about 5 miles from Calloway Gardens.
If you decide to forgo the trip please go to our home port and sail...it's too nice not to.
FYI...the next home port sail, on 10/17/2009, and all sails until next summer, will be at 12:00 noon. We are going back to our normal hours...the summer heat is gone!
Fair winds to ya.
Crash
