We had a great day with beautiful breezes and yes, 19 registered boats. It started with a few clouds and turned into a glorious sunny day. Many people just came to see the event, have a picnic, or watch the egg hunt.

 

Overall, it was a fantastic day.  During one of the final races, a singe goose tolled into the pond — about 2 feet over the masts of the fleet.  It looked quite surprised to see that his home had been overtaken by a bunch of boats and a crowd of people with antennas sticking out of their chests.  The spring calves, too, were quite curious as they leaned against the fence trying to figure out why they had been moved out of their pasture.

 

Next year Easter falls in March, so we are considering a date in April since the weather can be so unpredictable.
