If some of the folks at your local boat show look a bit tired on Day

Boston was my first experience with a major regional show and to tell
you the truth, I was amazed at how it was coordinated.

A logistical tour de force - both setup and breakdown.

Used to go to the Boston show with my dad. I'd get to miss a couple days
of school, see all the Boston relatives, and take the NH railroad train
from Back Bay to New Haven. I think I was 9 when I got to take my first
unaccompanied train trip. But those times were a lot different than
"these" times.
