SteveB[_2_] March 27th 09 01:11 AM

Anyone actually ......
 
doing any boating? Still waiting for the wind to die down here, two
bathroom remodels to progress past insanity stage, 1,000 of poured stamped,
dyed and sealed concrete, and various other lists of things to do so I can
take the maiden voyage in my new used boat. Guess I should go out there and
pull it in the garage and check on all the electrical and start making sure
it doesn't go up in a puff of smoke. Lots of strange wires that seem to go
to nowhere. It has a livewell pump, a bilge pump, running lights, depth
finder, nothing too complicated. The zerks could use a shot of KY. Need to
build a mount for the trolling motor. Check the wheel bearings. The usual.

Trees are budding here. Hummers showing up. Snowed today. Spring is
close.

Steve, I haven't begun to dig mine out yet. too much weird weather to
put up with here. Pop-up rains heavy wind gusts are going to be
coming, and even though the day may start out warm, sunny and kind.
out on Lake Carlyle, you could be caught in a thunderstorm and hard
winds really easily. Nah, I'll be getting to them towards the end of
April.

Between school and wife's plans, have not been out lately. Was thinking
this weekend and friends from out of town are coming to visit.

It's still too early here in MA. Our marina officially opens May 1st
although they start commissioning, launching and sticking boats in their
slips starting next week. I was always an early launch and a late
(sometimes in December) haul but as I've gotten older, I now wait. Decent
boating weather (ocean) here really doesn't begin until late May and into
June. I remember having 8 inches of snow on May 3rd a few years back, plus
the ocean in these parts doesn't really calm down until late May or June.
