2010 Blessing of the Fleet in Chattanooga
Posted: Wed May 05, 2010 8:32 pm
we had a professional photographer on a boat at our blessing of the fleet this past weekend, and he's posted them for review and sale.
being the sucker that i am, i just couldn't help but to fork out some beans and grab a couple of shots of the boat in action.
just wanted to share.
we had some MAJOR winds this last sunday. luckily for us here in chattanooga, the storms that hit nashville missed us by just a few miles...but we got the winds anyway. this shot doesn't really show it, but we were dealing with some pretty heady waves...compared to what we normally deal with.
this was taken at the end of the parade, just as the priest was about to do his bit, etc. we were sheltered by the chickamauga dam, as well as some high hills around this area, but we were still having a hard time holding in position. the flags tell the story of the wind.
had a great time and was truly blessed to have missed the storms so we could do our annual blessing of the fleet.

I´m out from the vikings. Actually I can find a couple of viking earls / kings very early in my family three. For more than 800 years ago.... Long before the Trojans.
