will steam up this Saturday, August 4, in San Francisco at her home in Hunters Point Naval Shipyard, near Building 809. :-)!!

All are welcome to come out and witness this historic occasion. (See our web site for directions.) She has been out of service for 5 long years, and it will be WONDERFUL to see her wake up again. She will run in our small yard in the afternoon.

Hope to see many of you there!

Well, the wheel arrangement would be nice!
