*ONLY* 135 (+/-) days to go!

I'm almost counting the days myself. Here it is, the boats are put
away and the months of Feb-Mar, my business drops to almost nothing.
Roads are posted, no farming or construction, so then is the time to
be working on my boat[s], but it's too blasted cold to do any
fiberglass and do it right. So , when the weather warms, about April,
then it's gonna be a scramble to 'gitter done!'

Buy that time farmers will be tooling up and I'll be in the shop
alot. So, it'll be work on boat in between jobs, that is IF I have
time between jobs. One makes the money that the other one devours.

Odd how it seems that way....

Would you believe that I know some guys who are upgrading their boats
now for Spring?


I wish!

All of you guys who are just itching to work on boats should come on
down to SWFL. I'm sure we could find a few little projects to whet
your appetites. Bring a truck load of tools with you along with a
second bathing suit, maybe a sweatshirt also since we've got a couple
of cool 70 degree days in the forecast.

I went down to the marina on Sunday. The boat was fine, all snug as a bug in its
shrinkwrap. I'd forgotten to put the lock on the hitch, so that gave me a reason
for checking it out. Plus, it was a beautiful day so I had an excuse to take the
motorcycle down the George Washington parkway to get to the marina. Nice little
ride.

Still haven't tuned the bike. But, it ran nicely in the sunshine. Maybe it was
just the rain.

We're coming to Disney World for a week around the 16th. Going with one of the
daughters and her family. Flying. Bring that boat up to Cocoa.

I don't paint and I don't do windows. :)



Maybe he wants you to pose in that swimsuit.

We spent two days at Disney...one in the magic kingdom and the other at
the animal park. Got "comped" for both days because Disney was having
computer problems with its computerized check-ins at our hotel, and it
took an hour for us to get to the head of the line. So, the hotel
arranged for us to get two free passes for two days.

Bring a cheapo raincoat if you decide to ride the Kali River Rapids,
because you will get soaked and the water is...cold. We had a nice meal
in that park at the Yak & Yeta amd at "downtown Disney," we had another
nice meal at Bongos Cuban Café, a restaurant created by Gloria and
Emilio Estefan.

Which one - the Speedo or the thong?


Ask the boys which one they'd prefer. :)
