[Rhodes22-list] Annapolis Sailboat Show

[Mac McCready]

It's a wrap.  With the blast from a cannon at 5:30 on Monday the 44th annual
Annapolis Sailboat Show came to an end.  What lasted for 5 days quickly
disappeared within hours with the show breakdown.  Hundreds of locals line
the Annapolis harbor year after year to watch this spectacle.  The
excitement that comes with being surrounded by all these toys, hanging out
with Rhodies, and meeting lots of good people is followed by the deflation
that comes when it all disappears.  Kind of like the day after Christmas.
Not to mention that the sailing season is soon coming to an end.  On the
other hand,  there are lots of soon to be new Rhodies who are really getting
revved up about getting a Rhodes and we all  know that feeling.  Personally
I really had a good time and can't wait "til next year. 

Thought I would attach a few show pictures  (hope I get this right).  The
pic with 5 is the Rhodes Sails (intentional) Crew with Stan Spitzer and (L
to R) Richard Beytaugh, Mac McCready, Melanie Dands, and Chris Cowie.  The
other pic is just some of the Rhodies that stopped by (names withheld to
protect the innocent).
