Latest from Loretta May #27

News from Larry and Marilyn Johnston in Kingston, Ontario and a big celebration for their yacht club.

This year Trident had their 50th Anniversary.  They put up a big tent in the parking lot and had lots of speeches and a buffet dinner.  Larry is one of the Directors, and we were all piped in by a piper.  Each director had a table and they all gave a toast at the same time.  The morning began with a sail past and we took part for the first time.  Our grand daughter was there and we took a couple of older girls from the club.  We were second last in the group going past the Commodore as sailboats go first and the boat behind us was the Rear-Commodore. Many of the boats were decorated with lights for the evenings festivities. 

Lights on Loretta May #27 at night 

Our boat is doing well.  We put in air conditioning last year.  Larry put a crane on the boat and we now have our Zodiac on the roof.  We practiced on the weekend with our grand daughter who is now 9.  We managed quite well I think.  

We plan to go to the Rendezvous again in the fall.  Hope to see you there!  In the meantime, have a great summer.
