Just made my appointment for the shrink wrap guy for the third week in
November. Hope to get out on my Parker twice before then, weather
permitting. It's been a nice season on the Bay, made even better by
the
fact that I never encountered the Wretched Herring.


Yup winter is a bitch. I had to turn on the solars for the pool and,my
wife put a jacket in the boat.
It may go down to 68 tonight Brrrr!


Been cool here in night. 88 during the day today. Yesterday, coming back
from taking the wife to the airport at 4:30 am was not to bad. Still
shorts
and tee shirt. Was up in Burney (3000') last week, and mid 30's at
night.
70's during the day. Going out tomorrow I think to San Pablo Bay for
some
striper fishing I think.


Hit the Dead Fish in Crockett for lunch!!!

Have not been to Crockett in a long time. Grew up near there.- Hide quoted

Pretty cool place. There was a road from Martinez to Port Costa
(Carquinez Scenic Road or some such) that was a neat two lane road
with nice views of the straight. When I was living there it was
partially closed because it was sliding down the hill.\

Yup, old Port Costa. Used to be a couple brothels there in my youth. I did
not visit them. One of the brothels from the late 1800's is a B&B now. We
used go out to a fun bar there in the early 1960's. Artsy community now.
