It's R-Matey!!! - 9/6/2012

It's the first official day of the Ranger Tug Rendezvous, and an early arrival is Traveler with Russ and Toni.
The day is filled with boat after boat coming in and greetings and hugs galore.

Many have not seen each other since last Summer, but those who were together as recent as last week are just as happy to meet up again.

Snacks and appetizers are brought out for Happy Hour, with Luck of the Pot dinner following.



And then we hear it --

"That's It, this is "R-Matey, Over"
"R-Matey,  Vessel That's It.  Come to the south end of the breakwater to enter the marina.  Then pull up to behind Traveler on the inside of the breakwater."

"Hey, everyone!  R-Matey is here!"


Joe and Ruth on R-Matey
Patrick directs them in, and we all cheer.











I think Toni and Ruth are glad to see each other!

    I heard we missed the group phone call to you, but were included in spirit. Ruth said she had wanted us all to say on the count of three, "Hi Jim and Joan!"
