Philly Memorial Day Weekend Tall Ships Festival (No Image)
 
Philly is hosting the Sail Philadelphia tall ships festival May 24 - 28, which
looks pretty interesting.

Here's info on the ships are going to be part of this:

If not for the fact that's Memorial Day weekend, I'd consider going.
Unfortunately, it takes a couple of hours extra to drive back home to Cape May
from Philly that weekend, and every Friday thru Monday until mid October,
making a less than 2 hour trip an over 4 hour ordeal of brutal traffic in
south Jersey.

The last Tall Ships in Philly was June 2015, and I've posted images from that
previously. :-)

If you're wondering, here's a good news article about the traffic problems
down here (watch the link wrap, Gravity news reader is broken, and at this
point unfixable):

A friend who still works for my former employer spent quite a few years as a
pro and news photographer. He lives (and works) within walking distance, so
I'm hoping he goes. IF he does, I'll post his Instagram and / or website link.
