I just got back from the boat show. Actually; I spent more time in my neighborhood "watering hole" than the show. Lou and I took the light rail (always a wonderful experience) to the show to avoid the parking fee. We spent two hours at the show looking at everything. I was really disappointed that the GEICO girl was not there this year. I think the size of the show is a statement on the whole boating industry. I'm waiting for Obama to put in a new cash for clunkers program that includes boats before buying another boat. I did see my embroider there and felt sorry that she had to pay for a space when there wasn't much foot traffic. I bought a nice towel with a rockfish on it for $7. Now everyone on the boat will want to use it and have it full of slime and scales.
Then we hit my local bar for some beers and a cheesesteak sub. It was the best part of the day. 5th (Marty)
