The Surprise

After Katy finished her run the other day, she told me she saw something along the Baltimore Inner Harbor that she wanted to show me.  Not knowing what it was, I thought of every possible charm Charm City could possibly offer—A warehouse?  A fish market?  Feral kittens?  No clue.
As we made our way around a bend in the harbor, Katy pointed out Thames Street and her friend Emily's house.  But that wasn't the surprise.  Then, she said, "And there's a boat someone's building."
Right before my eyes was the frame of a wooden boat.  There was no sign or any indication of who or what company was building it.  It was beautiful and BIG.  Whoever you are, thank you for the inspiration...thank you for sharing the dream.  And of course, thank you Katy :)
