Farewell Party

Wow, what a great day! We had our farewell event and all our neighbors and friends were there to say goodbye. The weather was fine, the company great and an overall success... except for the cut finger during the renaming ceremony. Yes, we had a renaming ceremony to make it complete and appease the gods of the sea and wind and all went well until I smashed the 18 year old bottle of our wedding champagne on the bow and glass managed to find itself everywhere. It was just a flesh wound...

Thanks so much to all our great friends. A special thanks to Angie, Betsy, Tim, Hank Billy and Rod for the helping hands. We'll be shoving off in about a week and will take the great memories with us.

    Wishing the entire crew many blessings, the proper amount of winds and much patience on the journey!

    We'll be missing you here at Nottingham-

    M.B. Pelosky and the rest of the Knights
