Nice pics, Ron. Lorna and I wish we could have been there but we were both working. Duty called for me and it's tax season for Lorna.

I thought this was going to be a long winter but it is certainly flying by.

Great pics Ron. Next time remind me to take people pictures! I always have pics of the lights but I have no pics of the other NELL members and it might be nice to have a face to go with a name once in awhile.

Thanks for sharing your shots.

Thanks for showing us your photos Ron! Are you trying to tell us that Ida slept with one eye open?

Thanks for sharing Ron. Looks like you had not only a nice crowd, but a really pretty day.

Dave

Great pictures Ron! Thank you for sharing them with us!

Looks like everyone is having a great time!

Great pics, Ron.

As for the Armadillo and the Lone Star... you had to live in Texas to understand that one, which I did! The Lone Star Brewery ran some absolutely hilarious commercials of attacks on their beer trucks by a giant armadillo, the big critter presumably suckin' the truck dry! Hence the connection between the Armadillo and the Lone Star. As for how it got to the Ida Lewis Yacht Club, you've got me there!

Gary,

Thanks for passing that story along. It will certainly clear up a few folks questions (as you can well imagine). Maybe one of the yachtsman is from Texas.
