Has it thawed out enough to go boating yet, back there in the
midwest? :-)



Not in the midwest, but here in the northeast tomorrow is the official
first day of the boating season at our marina, although boats have been
being launched since April 1st.

I am planning on going down and spend some time on the Navigator, fire up
the engines and generator, "summerizing" the water systems and getting
the refig cold and ready to stock up.

Meanwhile, it's still raw and raining .... 52 degrees. You'd feel right
at home.

Very nice here. Was 90 on Friday. 80's on Saturday when we helped out at
the park district kids fishing day at the local lake. Went boating on
Thursday, and bent a kicker prop, so it is sent off to be reconditioned at
Phil's props at Lake Shasta. Rockcod season opens tomorrow South of Pidgeon
Pt., so may go on a friends boat. Staying away from fishing out of Berkeley
as part of the freeway interchange I use to get there fell down after a
tanker truck fire and will be out of service for at least 2 months.
