Two weeks ago we had a thoroughly entertaining neighborhood get-together to race dinghys, be neighborly, and generally get wet. It was a raucous affair, filled with lots of splashing, rain, and prizes. There are lots of pictures at a special photo gallery. Of course, it's often difficult to take pictures of yourself when you're actively doing things. Luckily several other people took pictures as well. Van's pictures are in our gallery, and you should also check out our neighbor Lee's great pictures (and beautiful photo album design), since we're in a bunch of them, doing wild and crazy things.
For what it's worth, we won the "one oar down, no oars back" mixed doubles event. Kristin was the powerhouse in that event, I basically kept the boat straight while she zoomed us along.
