Caught My Fancy Friday: Achors Away!


I can read ten descriptions of, well, anything without appreciating its true size until I lay eyes on it. I read quite a bit about ships while researching my poisoner-in-Peter-the-Great's-court manuscript, but I never appreciated how MASSIVE they were until I saw some of their bits and pieces. This is the anchor from one of the ships in Peter's navy. Take a glance at those doorways in the background for scale.

HUGE.
