The origin of Messing About In Sailboats

  • The original quote is from Kenneth Grahame's Wind In the Willows: "There is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats."

If you are in New York this weekend

2703660003_8bb324252a Received this heads-up from Brian Luster:

Karen and I were headed down the West Side Hwy on Saturday when we spotted some very tall masts.  Turns out, as some of you know, that HMS Bounty is in town for the 4th.  Anyone know if any other tall ships are planning to be here?  Any plans for a parade of sail or some-such?

Also, I've put up a new post on A Movable Bridge.  If you have me in your blogroll and haven't already done so, please change the link to http://amovablebridge.wordpress.com


BTW: The photo is Bounty in SF
