The skip/skep symbol is pretty obscure!
How much did the Bath Winterfest Yeti love last year's MFS Baked Bean Supper?
Join us Saturday, February 21, 1-3pm--that's a NEW TIME so you can enjoy some tasty beans AND take part in the lantern parade. MFS will be scooping up take-away beans and mac'n'cheese at the Bath Freight Shed, 27 Commercial Street, with special thanks to J.R. Maxwell & Co. and The Fountain Ice Cream & Deli, plus event sponsor Bath Subaru. Suggested donation: $5. This is a tasty way to experience the community warmth of Bath Winterfest and support Maine's First Ship. #bathwinterfest #communityfun #bakedbeans #areyoureadyyeti #historyingenuitycommunity
Matt made it back to Boston! He’s working his way home to Maine while Alicia spends a few more days in sunny CA!
Cant wait to hear about it!
It's good to know that our Winterfest Baked Bean "Supper" will be held on Saturday, February 21, 1-3pm (a new time so you can enjoy beans and the lantern parade!); at the Bath Freight Shed, 27 Commercial Street; it'll be take-out and by donation (suggested $5). What else should you know? This year's event is sponsored by friends and neighbors: Bath Subaru, The Fountain Ice Cream & Deli, and J.R. Maxwell & Co. This means you get tasty beans and mac'n'cheese and your donation dollars support the educational programming of MFS. We encourage you to support local businesses that support community events and local organizations. Please thank these folks the next time you visit the garage, go out for dinner, or enjoy an ice cream. #shoplocalsupportlocal Main Street Bath #bathwinterfest #community #historycommunityingenuity
Bruce's workmate is not feeling well, so the two of them are taking the day off from their project here; Bruce still came by to do some shoveling. Don is patching walls in the Freight Shed kitchen. Matt & Alicia met up with Capt. JB Smith out at the Tall Ships America Conference and posed for a couple of photos. 🤔Hmm, did you notice that we have a pose shot and a work shot for Bruce & Don, but a pose and another posed shot (not even a different pose!) from Matt & Alicia? 😉 Actually the word is that another conference session just started--they are keeping busy out there: learning, networking, sharing the story of Maine's First Ship. It looks like at least at MFS, while the cat's away the mice will keep on working! 😃 #weloveourvolunteers #1607pinnacevirginia #bathfreightshed #tallshipsamericaconference2026 #historycommunityingenuity
Last night Alicia and Matt got to tour the ships at the San Diego Maritime Museum as part of the Tall Ships America annual conference.
These included a 16th century Spanish galleon replica, the USS Dolphin (the last active electric deisel submarine in the US Fleet) and shown here the HMS Suprise, the ship used in the Russel Crowe movie “Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World.”
They’re having a great time in CA connecting with other tall ship organizations!
