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, in Xtreme SW Utah |

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. |

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. Eisboch |
