Fireworks and Leftover Fiesta Images!

The wife said: "We are going out in the boat to see the fireworks and we are bringing the nieces and nephews"! No problem I thought, it would be a great evening on the water. She asked when should we leave the dock and I tell her no later than 8:30. That would give us enough time to get out there and anchor up for the 9:30 starting time. So with that I head to the boat at 8:00 to get it ready. It's 8:30 and I'm still alone at the boat! I call the wife and she said our guests are still watching the Horribles Parade going by their Washington St. home. At 9:00 my wife calls, she locked her keys in the house and is walking to the boat! At 9:10 she arrives but our guests are no where in sight! She calls her niece and they are stuck in parade traffic! At 9:20 they finally arrive, kids get their life jackets on and we are finally off. By the time we approach the Paint Factory the fireworks begin! "J's Escape" still waiting for a crew! Fireworks over The Fort! No Comment! Greasy Pole walkers head out. Two boats of walkers! Lobster boat "Allison Carol" with the sails of the schooner "Ardelle" in the background. "Ardelle" sails by flotilla. Crowds gather on the beach. Fake body builder fails! Joe leaps! Down goes "No Comment"!

Sunday 2012 Fiesta!

After staying up all night I managed to process a few images. I don't have the programs on this computer that allows me to edit the way I like so these have a few errors I couldn't correct. Mainly easy rotate and sizing. But all the other photos I took look good and I can't wait to get them published hopefully soon. VIVA!---- US Navy Band! Walkers Arrive. "Closing Time" wins the senior seine boat race! Stu McGllivray wins his 6th Greasy Pole! A closer look. Champ reaches the beach. Showered with beer! Holding the flag high! "Rising Tide" wins the junior seine boat race!
