p.s. Check out the new SnApS Galleries. In June I was in the grass with Potter pups at the Heart & Sole Walk and on the pin boat at starting line of the J-Class Regatta. Based on requests for these photos, I've just set-up a Zenfolio site where you may order prints if you wish!

 The Robert H. Tiedemann Classic Yachting Weekend on 7/2-3 will be highlighted by the triumphant return of Amorita to Newport Harbor. And, in addition to Captain Bob, we'll be remembering Don Glassie, who passed last winter. Don, a powerful force in the yacht racing world, brought classic boating "to the people" with his beautiful fleet including Madeline, Rum Runner and Arabella. Next weekend 7/9-10 is one the largest sailing events of the season. The Newport Regatta regularly attracts upwards of 200 racing sailboats on multiple circles throughout the Bay. Two other fun water-related events include a Duck Race at Third Beach to benefit the Middletown Education Collaborative and Surf Fest with Sid Abruzzi at Rough Point After Dark on 7/21. Last but not least, the Cafe Zelda / IYAC Newport Cup will be sailed on 7/2, whether you sail or not, be sure to stop in at the two best Sailor's Bars in town.
