    I live in a great city

    I woke up this morning wondering what to do. I decided to go down to the electric flying field for a while, then went to the 1/8 scale hydro races at Quiverra basin, then spent the next few hours at the Unlimited Hydro races. Is this a great city or what?

        I love the look on doods face wearing the chargers helmet! He should've painted it the right colors though.
        I guess it's easier to match the helmet to the boat, not the boat to the helmet!

            Look at the pose and the expression of the guy "being examined" on the exhaust side. Looks like "Mr. Intake" is reaching through and checking him out, if you get my drift.......

                        Ah yes !! I rember living in OB in the late sixties when we would fill the minibus with fried chicken & suds, park on the sand in Mission & watch the unlimiteds fly by offshore . On Sundays I'd go to the pond at Vacation Village & watch the model boats zoom around [ much to the chagrin of my first ex-wife ].

                          Nice pic's again but you forget I live in Seattle only about 20 min's from the Hydro museum and I already have about 100 pics from the relaunch a couple of weeks ago.

                            If you were in OB in the 60s, then you must remember the OB Spaceman. He was a rather Iconic figure of the times.
