It's 52....
and supposed to get to 70. Think I'll do a little filling and sanding this
morning and take the family for a little river cruise this afternoon. Not that I'd rub it in or anything. There has got to be 60 holes in the cockpit of my old boat where gear was moved around (mostly filled but poorly) and where I've removed small fittings like jam cleats and strap eyes. I'm redoing the non skid so I think my patches will hide better. |

I'm headed down to the shop to weld up a target holder to take with us. Ya'll have fun! |

Can't be that bad. Is he at the academy? No, I couldn't get either of my sons interested in attending one of the service academies even though I promised them each a new Corvette if they graduated and received their commission. It actually would have been a good deal for me but they saw right through it and I ended up spending a lot more than that on tuition. My oldest however does have his name on a trophy at the naval academy sailing center for his accomplishments elsewhere. It would be tempting to call him a chip off the old block but in sailing circles these days I'm more often known as "Peter's Dad". |

They'd have gotten a hell of an education for a five year commitment. Most academy grads get their masters, paid for by the military, also. |

I'm redoing the non skid so I think my patches will hide better. The temp (38F) isn't bad, but the three inch layer of snow on the ground makes golfing impossible. Checked the boat yesterday, and found the shrink wrap held up to the snow quite well. Felt sorry for some of the folks who lost their boat covers due to the weight of the wet snow we had. Yeah, I could use some 70 degree weather. |

And see if you can catch a bit of hypothermia while you're at it. |
