have 4 days off...weather report says it should be great for the whole
weekend. plan to put an air conditioner on the boat...make it cool
for the doggies while the wife and i head for the beach...

long beach island is nice...a little barrier island about 5 blocks
wide. boat is on sheltered bay side, and beach is 5 minute walk
away...

probably nice a nice little boat ride down the island a few
miles...maybe up the island a bit to places we havent been...but
channel is very narrow there, about 20 feet wide with lots of traffic

meet up with some friends...enjoy some cioppino and try to stay on a
diet!

so what are your plans?

I am sure we will get out a couple times. My priorities have changed.
We used to like high tides so we could go anywhere in the bay. Now we
like low tides so Mr Ed has islands to run around on.

It will be low in the afternoon next weekend

It turns out he is a non-swimming lab so all of that ramp/winch stuff
to get him back in the boat is not necessary.

A non-swimming Lab??
Still, if he fell in for some reason you should have a DOB plan in place
to get him back on board.


We have a swimming raccoon, name of Savannah, who I saw fishing in a
neighbor's koi pond. Fortunately, she got away with her catch before the
neighbor noticed her.

Sometimes she shows up in our back yard and waits for my wife to toss
her a snack. Pretty girl, sweet face, smart. Probably smarter than
Scotty, Loopy Loogy or Flajim. Assuredly smells better.
