I'm thinking that because the boat is on the lake we may not need to invoke all those sea gods in the ceremony. In fact I'm thinking we may revise the naming ceremony quite a bit and just have a couple beers and have a toast to Mineola and any other lake spirits that may be lingering about...especially the spirit of "Squirrley Winds" ...you know...that sudden shift of wind direction that sends the boom flying across the cockpit and knocking unaware sailors unconscious?

The heck with the Lake Sprits just enjoy the liquid ones during the short and sweet ceremony. Oh, Mineola is a town that a good friend of mine lives in Texas.
