rebeccmeisterI think I might wind up strongly preferring a Sunday regatta, because it gives us working stiffs all of Saturday to get ready.
I spent a silly amount of time this morning moving things from one pile to another. So! Many! Things!
There will be even more thing-pile moving tomorrow, of course. Other things, other piles. Much moving.
Then I managed to sneak home for about 2 hours, long enough to shower, eat food, and pick raspberries, before returning to the boathouse to meet with the volunteers who are the real glue for the regatta, those driving safety launches and doing the timing. Good people. The most fun was doing a practice walk-through holding bow numbers to simulate what it's like to do timing for a regatta.
Once that was done, we hauled cinderblocks down to the launches, and put in the course buoys.
I think that putting in the course buoys may actually be my absolute favorite part of a regatta. Probably because it just consists of chill time doing something out on the water. Good weather definitely helps.
I have my space leggings and cowboy hat all ready to go for tomorrow. Here we go.
