Here begins our adventure in blogging. If you know me from the Fray, or from some other context, you pretty much know what to expect. I've nothing more to say for now, except thanks for looking in, and please check in again soon. Any suggested topics for discussion are welcome.
I hope to be posting some stuff for the Fray writers' group here soon. That will be clearly marked as such. Your comments are also eagerly awaited on anything else I post here.
Thanks! Hope to see you and Ms. P.J. at the Fray Gathering on the weekend of October 2nd.
ReplyDeleteNice blog, Claude. Congratulations.

ReplyDeleteThanks! Do you know Bluto's blog address? Do you have one, too?
To Rap:
Bet you they don't have Belpaire fireboxes.
I've not had many occasions to see real steam-powered stern or sidewheelers in action. I am, however, a fan of the rapidly-disappearing oceangoing steamship (there may be a few still chuffing around the Mediterranean, in Asian waters, and perhaps in South America). Indeed, I was lucky enough to cross the Atlantic four times by steamship.
The picture looks scary because my daughter took it, and I always look scary to her.
