… Labor Day, and (practically speaking) the beginning of Fall!
Here are a few celebratory photos taken at yesterday’s Great North River Tugboat Race & Competition. Lots more photos to come. (Last year’s are here.)

Lovely! Wish I could’ve been there again this year, but there was stuff that had to get done at work. Glad it didn’t pour the way it was supposed to – at least I was able to peek at the proceedings on Facebook while I chugged away at my chores.

It was a dark and dramatic day—at least until the sun started peeking out later on in the proceedings—which made the light a lot more interesting than last year. Too bad you couldn’t make it. Next year! :-)
