Default Where to find ramp stories?

I don't have specific story but enjoy watching the activities at a regional
launch ramp.

I spent a total of about 30 days at anchor near this ramp during the summer.

I think the most entertaining are watching people attempt to get their boats
on or off their trailers when the tide is out, beyond the end of the paved
ramp..

Also I enjoy noting the different ways people go about keeping their feet
from getting wet.. The cleverest would be the fellow with a Suburban. This
fellow has backed down until the rear wheels are completely submerged
(remind me not to buy a used Suburban with a trailer hitch). He climbs over
the seats and out the back door to operate the winch from the rear bumper.
Did the same thing on recovery.

My opinion and experience. FWIW
