at last, pictures of La Tishie Mae going into the water! going going gone as Bert says, craning a boat into the water from drydock is a delicate dance; a ballet…with giant rubber bands.

great news! the boat, La Tishie Mae, finally went in the water today! i wasn't there to see it, but mom did get photos i will post tomorrow. the big day finally came, but i think the both of them, mom and bert, are so exhausted from all the work and stress they haven't had…
