Steamboating this weekend
Thanks for the notification.
I wish that I had been notified of the date for the 2 times that I showed up on the wrong date. Once I got the wrong info from an out of date website and once I was given the wrong date by the B&W resort itself.

Darn, Wish I had a bit more notice... ;-) Then again, first I have to figure out how to sneak the Mark Twain out the gate, perhaps David Copperfield can help with that one. Then come up with the bucks to truck it from Anaheim to Long Beach, then retract the guide wheels and rig up a working rudder, then rig up several big deck tanks to carry enough boiler water and #2 fuel oil, and sail up the coast to Rio Vista. 8-0 Gee, do they make Bearing Buddies for Goldschlager Trailers? Copperfield should be able to fill the tanks and transport the Twain close enough to Rio Vista to steam in on her own. Just ask him! P.S: Tell David that I'd be happy to babysit Claudia for a week while you guys do that dangerous boy stuff. pant, pant -- The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
