My favorite yacht was Lawley .
In England. In 1851 he moved his
family to Massachusetts.
Family lore states that the
steamship passed the yacht
AMERICA on her famous
Cup voyage and set the
family on its road to
subsequent Cup victories.
After working for
Donald McKay, George founded
his own shipyard in Scituate,
Massachusetts.

It's fun to Dream. I miss my Sailing days. Sail Boats are too much work. |

ReplyDeleteDarling Yvonne! THank you for coming to my post about my house! I really appreciate your visit and comment. Funny thing is I can't find a copy of this magazine to safe my life. No one carries it around here! AHHH!
ReplyDeleteNice yachts! I saw your comment on my blog. The gold mop cypress should do fine where you are. As far as the grasses are concerned, some of them had a hard time coming back after last year's winter. They didn't start really filling out until well into June. Also, your grasses could have gotten damaged from snow piling up on them or salt from the roads, since they were near the driveway. Perhaps you can try them again, and a helpful tip is to not cut them back until late spring until you see them start sprouting. Keeping them intact over winter helps to protect the roots. Hope this helps!
