final voyage on the canal.....

[bobber]

got to Scusett last night around 6:30.... little light rain coming down, and some people around like you would expect. as I made my way down to the water, a guy stanig on the path stopped me and asked if Icould give his father-in-law's boat a little pusf back in the water(?)

there was NO boat anywheere in sight....I mean, this IS the Canal, and 500 footers go by all the time, right?!?

then he pointed out a small white object at the edge of the water- a small home made pirate ship was stuck on the edge of the current. turns out his F-I-L was "on board" this little miniature boat (cremated) and was off on his final journey; his last wish was to be sent out to sea and he was stuck in the eddy next to east-running tide.

so I gave the guy a good shove off, and he sailed off into the ever-after......


just thought I'd share........
