YESTERDAY EVENING'S STORM
TWO TALL SHIPS AT CITY DOCK
CROWDS OF VISITORS
SPIDERWEBS OF RIGGINGWednesday, 8:00 AM. 66 degrees, wind W, light. The area had torrential rains yesterday evening, but there is only .5” in our gage. The barometer predicts more rain. The skies are cloudless and the atmosphere comfortable.
Two more tall ships have arrived in Bayfield, these the real thing. Huge, twin-masted, many-sailed behemoths right out of Moby Dick or Mutiny on the Bounty. One can almost hear Admiral Perry exulting, “We have met the enemy, and they are ours!” The tall ships have drawn crowds of visitors, and are another reminder that Bayfield is on a seacoast.
