I'm finished with boating.
 
For this year, anyway.
Boat's up on the hard. Yard mechanic will be winterizing over the
weekend. Now I can start the countdown until Spring.

Used to have a poster here who kept track every day of the countdown...
Forget who that was.


From the temps being forcasted here next week, I'm thinking about 9 or
10 days. :-

Almost. Our 2-3 months of "winter" is sprinkled with a couple days of
spring every so often. Nice for getting the boat out (what I was
really referring to), but hard to get climatized to the cold when it's
here.

Yeah, I know. Cry me a river.

I was there a month ago. Still no rain to speak of and the water
levels are low. and have been for a couple of months. Nothing to do
with boating untill about March and then make plans for river running
and lake circling...

I am going to hire a guide and learn striper fishing on Lake Anna. They're catching bunches of them.
But, I'll have to get a couple more folks interested, 'cause the guides want $450 for a day's
fishing.

$450? For the same info that you could probably get from the locals
for the asking?

Perhaps. But I don't know any of the locals. Plus, this guy takes you to get the bait, so you know
where to go for that, Hell, if three of us go, it's $150 apiece, and we get to keep our fish. Such a
deal.

I am trying to remember what I miss about winter ... oh yeah ...
spring.

80s and beautiful here today. Mr Ed and I went out to his island today
but it was belly deep for him. He still liked it.

We're going camping down at Solomons Island this weekend. Should be fun, but there won't be any
playing in the water.

Grab a lunch or dinner Saturday at Jerry's seafood restaurant, on the
right on Route 4, about two miles south of P.F. Next to the tire
store...but don't let that offput you. Not open on Sunday.
