The Ritual

How many Canadians does it take to launch the grey float?

Every spring we launch our grey rowing float off the beach by the boathouse, putting the 3 pieces together at low tide and then floating it off at high tide .  This year there were neighbors to help.  I took pictures.  Our very funny neighbor S has a big yawn going as I had just shown him the blip from last year with our dil working while our son yawned.   :-)  The little guy is the one in the helicopter in last years photo, and owner of the boathouse.    Nicer weather this year.


Extra with blipper Islandcat pushing (they are plastic but not that light as over the years some have collected water in them) and S’s wife directing.  
We are very grateful for these lovely people..thank you!!

I just realized I’m using 2 hands to type for the first time in 4 1/2 weeks.  yay!
