Nice GP (ground photo) though. I think boats are like trains, until they can roll and loop (and recover by themselves) , it is not for me. At least not till I am too old to see distance..... Brian Pete,

They used scale military boats and ships. They used compressed air to fire BB's and 9mm bullets at the other boats. It was very well organized and a lot of fun to watch. We should find out when the next boat battle will be and go and watch. A couple of years ago, Cathy and I went over to Fremont and watched the boat battles where they shoot at each other.

Although you did bring us back to reason at the end. The boat in the second pic is throwing a huge rooster tail. dt Nice pics, Pete, and I enjoyed the divergence from airplanes.

I wonder - are water planes allowed where he boats? I'm thinking PBY Catalina... Great day at Baylands today - don't know why! Gary I miss Bob - I like to listen to him speak - waiting for the witticisms. I wonder - are water planes allowed where he boats? I’m thinking PBY Catalina…

Great day at Baylands today - don’t know why!
