events.
In my last column I commented that we
were in for a great boating season with the heavy rain and
snow filling the lakes to higher levels than seen for a number
of years.
Little did I know that there was more rain and snow to
come. Those of us that attended the Bass Lake event saw
rain Sunday night followed by snow on Sunday morning.
The weather at Wood and Glory set a record with rain most
of the weekend. Saturday to Sunday saw the heaviest rain
with a total of two inches falling. Just when I thought that
the rain was over for the year, we got a thundershower
during the Great Gatsby party at the South Tahoe Wooden
Boat classic. That makes the record 75% for rain at events
so far this year.
Even with the rain, we have had an outstanding Wood and
Glory event. Thanks to quick thinking by the Wood and
Glory chairs and their staff, the event was moved inside.
Bass Lake started of with great weather for the Friday
night barbeque. Saturday was clear but cloudy for the boat
parade. Dinner Saturday night was followed by live
entertainment. The Sunday morning poker run was
cancelled and the breakfast was moved inside due to rain
and snow. Other than some wet and frozen boat covers, all
had a good time.

If you were at the South Tahoe Wooden Boat Classic, you
know that the show was a sell out. Friday night On the
Docks was standing room only. The great Gatsby would
have been right at home at the Saturday night party at the
Pope Estate. It was priceless to here the stories told by
members of the Pope family. If you weren’t there, mark
your calendar to attend the show and events next year.
Every year many of us say, “Where did the summer go.”.
Well summer isn’t over but it will be soon so don’t miss out
on the summer that is left. Check the ACBS website at
