Nancy Tankersley » Sleeping Beauty

A common sight in the Chesapeake Bay Region is an old workboat, propped up in some old waterman home, waiting for someone with youth and energy to fix her and put her out on the water again. The tangle of weeds and brush overgrowth reminded me on the fairy tale "Sleeping Beauty".
