Hello Uncle Al,

...
Here, and in the following e-mails are a few pictures from the Killbear Rally--we missed you!  They are from our new digital camera that I'm still trying to master.  I know you can deal with the odd sizes.  I never got a roster from Dick so I'm not completely sure of the names. More to follow, 

Bill

The Ted Davis Memorial Trophy for the best cruise log of 2003 was won by New England's Tom Graefe for his fine record of a week-long cruise on the coast of Maine with Dick Harrington in early September 2003. Neither last year's winner, Dick Harrington (Cleveland) nor Tom were able to attend the CWA's January 2004 AGM due to bad weather, and the Trophy was presented with due ceremony at the International Rally.
