Google is your friend......says Sept 6-15th

The steamboats are here!
 

Lots of steamboats steaming around today. I especially liked the one with paddle wheel propulsion.

Went over Saturday with my wife and 2.5 y.o. He loved watching and listening to the whistles.
I want to thank the captain or "Melvin" as always very nice and talked to my son which my son loved!! He even offered to take us for a spin around, which I was very upset my son said no :confused:
I'm upset I won't be around this weekend to go over and see more.
Can't wait until next year

For anyone who hasn't seen them, here's a series of videos I made in 2010:

Toot toot
 

We, in Moultonborough Bay, grow accustomed to the "toot toot" , the week after Labor Day.
However . . . . today, around noon, a steamboat in the vicinity of Buzzell's
Cove, managed to toot out the music to Merrily We Roll Along. Very innovative and quite entertaining.

Toot-Toot
 

Several years ago there was a gentleman with a steam calliope on board. He played the "I'm Popeye the Sailor Man" song, and all the other boats whistled at the appropriate times. It was great!
