I once tried off-shore racing folks,
my boat done up in blue
The red boat that I raced against
was quite a fast one too

We crashed into each other with
both boats completely ruined
but worst of all, I'm going to say,
we ended up marooned!

Now that's art... Maybe?
I haven't taken an art class since the 7Th grade, I think your mixture for that color is more like a Far East boat "clash"...
(So salley)...

Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul,and with all your mind. Love your neighbor as yourself.

JL,
Lol, thanks. I've got to be more careful with these things, last time around I think I hurt myself and had to take a week or so off to recuperate.

I'm just glad you weren't purpled out of your boat and drown!

I think it is the sea itself that rebels against off-shore racing ... it does not share with men the passion for speed. It's all natural pace.

psst ... I love speed too!

Great one!

Lori,
Thanks lol, apparently there wasn't enough "purpellent" force from the crash.

Krawdad,
Thanks, glad you stopped in for a laugh.

Margherita,
