We made it to the Conor Byrne Pub in Ballard for the 11th annual Stories of the Sea contest, sponsored by the Port of Seattle and the Propeller Club. Our friends Jim and Barbars Cole, introduced us to this annual tradition back before we sailed to Hawaii together - thanks guys.
In time for sandwich dinner, we snagged a seat up front, and enjoyed the stories and songs.
A few were recorded by Three Sheets NW. You can listen to some of those stories HERE.
It was fun to try for some shots, in very difficult lighting conditions.
