Not to steal anyone's thunder, but would anyone else be interested in a group paddle down the Charles one of these upcoming weekends?

Re: Night Paddle - Weymouth/Quincy - 9/23/10
Norm, thank you for posting these pix. I go by the old lumberyard every weekend as I take my 92 year old mother from her apartment on Southern Artery to Stop & Shop. She always comments about it. Now I can show her what's been going on! I would LOVE to take that the same trip some day. Having sp...

Re: Cameras
A co-worker just got one of these and raves about it. Not sure which, but it wasn't the most expensive one. Better deals can be found elsewhere online.

Estimated retrieval of cat from Angell Memorial is "late afternoon/early evening" Thursday.
Will load up the truck tonight in the hopes of salvaging some time after the Fall River > Jamaica Plain > Abington (she's not much of a swimmer) > Hanson drive.

Okay, Pat. I give up. I entered a URL for my boat, but it was way too big, so removed it. I have the image saved at a better size, but I don't see an 'insert' method within the edit signature section? I'm fairly computer literate, if you could instruct whenever convenient. Thanks!
