Tall Ships Challenge 2008

[glaistig]

I posted this as an answer to where I will be this summer... but if you are in the area (NW coast... Portland north into BC) you really should see this. Especially if you like the Age of Sail. This is where the Lady Washington will be when I am sailing on her... as Bosun's Mate. Yay!

At some point you may need a Glossary of Nautical Terms to read

Yes! You should come and visit me!

[sophrosyne_sl]

This is *very* cool!

[starwyse]

Holy crap!

I've got people up that way dying for me to visit, mayhaps I'll work on one of my 2008 trips to coincide so I can see you in your Washington glory :D

S~

[glaistig]

That would be amazing! I haven't seen you in sooooo long :)

[jenshan]

Your info is more up to date than mine. What a sweet schedule! And we get to see the Nina and the Eagle and the Lynx, among others. Aren't you just salivating? I can hardly concentrate on the present, I am so eager for the summer.

[glaistig]

Me too! I am such a sci-fi dork that I want to see the Eagle because I read the S.M. Stirling "Change" novels.

I also noticed that square rigger, the North Star of Herschel Island. I have never heard of her... perhaps because she is Canadian.

Anyway, yes! Excited like crazy!
