Nothing but fair weather in California with an occasional rain shower this
year. Bad tidings for lake levels and drinking water for this overpopulated
state!


On the other hand, great days for taking the boat out! I cleaned up my
boat, Sea Ray 185 Sport, and charged the battery and fired up the motor last
weekend. Yesterday, my friend called and said "Let's go fishing." I said,
"Ok."


We trailered to Clear Lake and launched at Lakeport. Light winds. Blue
skies. Mid 70's. Uncrowded (it's a big lake and it was a weekday). Flat
water. Deli sandwiches, sodas, double-stuff Oreo's, Opened up the throttle
a couple of times, otherwise just cruised from fishing hole to fishing hole
for 8 hours on a beautiful day.


Boat ran well and all things seem in order for a fresh boating season. It
was a great day!


Shut up. :)

Tom, you need it.

If you didn't need it, you wouldn't be getting it.

84 and calm here today. I wish I had been prepared to dig the boat
out. I want to work on it in the worst way, but the only place I have
at my house is the lawn, and it's waaay too soggy and tracks up
easily.

errrr! maybe next week the lawn will solidify that is, if no more
rain, and then can I plan out what I want to do to it.
