This Dutch Girl might be lost . . . parked along the Calcasieu (CAL-ca-zew) River in Cameron, LA. Anyhow, she’s not to be mistaken for the Dutch Girl that fishes the sixth boro in the cold months.
Pretty Jewelry . . . getting caught by false promises can be trouble . . . Click here for the rest of the Pretty . . . fleet. Thanks to Ashley Hutto for this photo.
Overdie . . sounds frightening, even for a scrapyard. But here’s the context . . it’s not English.
On The Rocks, not an auspicious name for a boat, ever. Yet, a glance at the Coast Guard records shows over 40 boats in their registry with this name!! Thanks to Justin Zizes Jr. for this.

Names . . are just . . . names.
Recently, great names like Herman Hesse, Ever Lasting, . . .
