Lucille Johnstone Workboat Parade at RiverFest on the New Westminster waterfront today. Always a blast.

I admit as an environmentalist I wonder at all the fuel burned for fun, but the Fraser is a working river, and all these folks from tugs to SAR earn a well-deserved day of fun.

Their skill and professionalism are astounding.
