Tip Johnson, portraying Fairhaven Founder Dan Harris, rowed into the Padden Lagoon yesterday to the cheers of hundreds of people along Harris Avenue.

Follow the rowers progress on a special page.

Our modern day Dan Harris, aka Tip Johnson, and row organizer Dale McKinnon, are shown in the upper left of this aerial photo, rowing along Lummi Island about 1 pm today. They are headed for Inati Bay, where they will spend the night. In the bottom right is the 43-foot catamaran Gato Verde, which is acting as mother duck or support base for the rowers.
