AMAZING shot, Glenn.
They visited Chicago last year but I missed the parade of ships when they were in full sail like this; only got them up close. Can't wait to see them next time. Thanks for sharing this wonderful experience with us. #4668851

Glenn E. Urquhart August 29, 2007

First, I must appologize for the delay in response... For some reason, BP does not send me an E-mail on members who comment on my photo's so I do periodic searches in my Gallery... I really welcome and appreciate your thoughtful words, Vicki!!! Thanks, Glenn. #4717689
