Water Under, Not Over

Aye, the title says it all – we prefer water under us, not over us (too much like drowning).

While we wait to see what the weather actually brings Thursday evening (20 July) our next historical Pyrate walk is indeed scheduled for 7:00 pm. While a little sprinkle o’ rain may not deter us, the addition o’ lightning storms is a definite reason to batten down the hatches…or at least watch from a safe distance (standing next to a large steel lift bridge is NOT a good spot).

So…ye may judge for yerself, or at least come out and meet us no later than 7:10 pm on the compass at the riverside corner o’ West & Clarence Streets. If it gets too hazardous for a walk, there’s always next week!
