Although not all vessels on the harbor work there, all these fotos come compliments of Bernie Ente from the Working Harbor Committee. See the schedule for their fabulous summer 08 tours here. Well, the harbor doesn’t serve only for work. However, for
Coral Sea,
Buchanan 10,
the automated lighthouse “Kate” at Robbins Reef,
Doris Moran, with a ghostly Saint Michael’s Monastery Church on Union City ridge in the background,
and Socrates,
the sixth boro is the job site. Socrates, where did he come from? Uh, a Norfolker migrating up.
Now that clock in the background . . . well, the one that stood there until 1924 ended up in Jeffersonville, Indiana, facing across the Ohio River toward Louisville.

jeeze. I’m glad I stopped over, I totally forgot I really wanted to go on one of these sometime this summer.
Which is flying past so fast that I’m actually scared to even try to carpe diem. The speed these diems are moving, I’d probably end up with a dislocated shoulder.
That will be in a blog post one of these days…just thought of it as I was trying to work out how I was going to get up to the class I’m helping teach at Lake Sebago this weekend, which caused me to skip a dinghy cruise, and next month there’s a kayak instructor certification course I’m taking that’ll make me miss the next dinghy cruise, and…yeesh, wonder if I get to sail again at ALL this year.
