Happy Solstice

Post by Cedarsailor »

Yes, the days are beginning to get longer in the northern hemisphere. I"m sure you all appreciated the extra 4 seconds of daylight today. :D So it's time to think about those projects that need to be completed before relaunch. For us, that will be in eight weeks!

I'd trade him for my blue boat if he doesn't like the slow white.
