Houston In-The-Water
Another boat show I cannot attend.

Houston In-The-Water Boat Show
September 29th-October 2
Their main page says they are postponed due to Hurricane Rita, but I know a medical conference is still happening in Galveston. So I suspect they just haven’t gotten around to updating their webpage, as people are slowly trickling back into that area.
It’s wonderfully refreshing that there are more sailing-related exhibitors, this year.
Boat shows can be fun. Back in high school, I knew friends who went to comic book conventions (attempting to find work). Some of them, in later life, now go to computer conventions. (Boring.) But, man, there’s nothing like a boat show. (And one doesn’t need to bring one’s dice or pocket protectors.)
