Well since it's well past lunch guess everyone got lost. Not sure how since this is the center of the known universe, but regardless gunna start o' beer thirty with a Dark Star dry Irish stout. I have may have the last keg of it, as it has had it's wake and is done for at the brewery. Sorry no Guiness, but know where close by we can get some on tap.

Hmm...sounding like a pre-Tangier, Guiness, rendezvous may be in order.

I'm up for another rendezvous and I promise not to drink the last of anything! Those dark stouts are to be savored anyway, not chugged down like some high schooler drinking his fill of Coors Light. Note to you light beer drinkers: Don't go gettin' yer BVd's up in a knot! You'll learn eventually!!! Hahahahaha!!!
Bob hiccup! 23

Ok...seems the ball is rolling! Where and when? I'm ready for another road trip in the trusty old Porsche.

The eerie stonehenge picture will have to wait until I get back to the inland home tomorrow.  This seems to be a beer thirsty crew.  I should probably mention that I'm a home brewer.  I've been perfecting my lagering technique lately with a dark lager as my most recent effort.

Well that depends upon the desired beer digs! If we wanna make it a non boat kind of gathering then will be glad to host a brewery tour of the 8 breweries within a half hour of our farm and brewery. Well maybe some of them! Goggle Mountain Culture Kombucha for our little brewery. We do make beer sometimes but that is not what we sell.

If a return to the bay then would highly recommend meeting up down near PeterG's home and our marina which is just across from Merrior which is the Rappahannock Oyster folks restaurant with an incredible draft selection right on the water. Open till 9 on weekends.

Now since we have a chart plotter I have promised myself to balance that technology with learning how to use a sextant. That'll be another story!

Don't forget, my offer still stands for free Celestial Navigation instruction for all CPYOA correspondents.
And don't forget my lessons, somewhere on this website!  Look for "Celnav" posts in the "sailing articles" section. Give me a buzz if there's anything I can do to get you on your way.

Hey HenryC, thanx so much will more than likely take you up on this!

I've never quoted myself before! Anyway would love to have an excuse to try to get a reunion of the CBMWG folks, the question before we turn this over to an appropriate thread is are we looking to be on the water or up here in the center of the known universe. Maybe we should just have to do both. :) What do you guys think? Lemeno and will get a thread going. Will make sure Heave knows too, though my guess is he may already know something is afoot.

So lets try that again with the appropriate quote!

Back to Vernal Equinox.  Here is the promised accidental eerie Stonehenge photo.  1987.

Note the giant, cloudlike sheep floating over the heads of the tiny looking tourists.

They must be the spirits of ancient Dreweids.
