Why, you think they'll go down more? What if the lake level starts
coming back up?!

Lake Schmake - it ain't the lake level - it's gas and mortgage prices.

Despite Chuck's opinon, which I respect, folks ain't gonna be able to
afford gas unless your in a position were it truly can't hurt you if
you spend $200 a tank for a weekend. Chuck's view is skewed by the
fact that he doesn't have to spend money getting his boat to the water
- he's in a whole different strata than those of us who trailer boat
or use gas engines.

I just got a "heads up" from the boat broker. He says the buyer of the
Navigator is going to request that he be given free use of my slip for the
rest of the winter.

I am going to negotiate that. I'll say, "Sure, if you will reimburse me for
the 550 gallons of diesel fuel on board".
