Your mentioning the cannon reminds me of Fort Gains, alabama civil war ruins with the big cannons; here is the link http://www.homepages.dsu.edu/JANKEJ/civilwar/FtGaines.htm.Linda Starrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04364078667554676592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7184126423669640998.post-1558108116540975262010-08-17T09:49:22.387-04:002010-08-17T09:49:22.387-04:00Sigh... my father and I would hole-up in the works...Sigh... my father and I would hole-up in the workshop all winter long, staying warm and building small plank-on-frame sailboats. In the spring we'd head out to the pond and have races while taking potshots at them with a small cannon...

I've only been sailing a few times but you describe it so well. Perhaps one of these days again.<br /><br />Hi Meredith, thanks, yes they have a nice port to stay in again.Linda Starrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04364078667554676592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7184126423669640998.post-20165236516968990572010-08-17T07:10:56.620-04:002010-08-17T07:10:56.620-04:00looks as if they have found a good port to call ho...looks as if they have found a good port to call home.<br />They are beautiful.cookingwithgashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11456258592273328486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7184126423669640998.post-51677011840030965182010-08-17T06:33:58.261-04:002010-08-17T06:33:58.261-04:00Kind of sad those people had to part with such bea...Kind of sad those people had to part with such beauties but how lucky for you and they must feel good they went where they were appreciated. They are beautiful.<br />Sailing is just a wonderful way to enjoy the water. No roar and smell of engine, just the sound of waves slapping and mast creaking.<br />Enjoy your treasures and how great you two have similar interests.Arkansas Pattihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14156004753267665579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7184126423669640998.post-30349118507929234552010-08-17T05:45:20.294-04:002010-08-17T05:45:20.294-04:00It's mind boggling how reasonable art can be t...It's mind boggling how reasonable art can be to add to your life.Linda Starrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04364078667554676592noreply@blogger.com
