Wild day at the dock
 

Wind is blowing 25 to 30 mph with a forecast of winds increasing today
to 40 mph with gusts over 60, it is making for a exciting day at the
slip today. To make matters worse, over half of the boats have been
hauled, so the wind is hitting the boat hard across the open water.

Got the heat on, (44 degrees outside) lines doubled up, and I am
watching Imus on MSNBC. He just had Terry Bradshaw on - that man is a
total lunatic.

I love the sound of the lines stretching as the boat sways and bobs
around. Methinks a nap may be in order later.

Life is good.

Good grief...Imus? You'd be better off watching Roadrunner cartoons.
Go update to Thunderbird .9.




I happen to enjoy Roadrunner cartoons.

Imus has changed quite a bit over the years. If you haven't seen or
listened for a while, check it out.

Sounds like it. I just returned from Nantucket and the Sound is white
from one side to the other - amazing.

This is the kind of day I like to go to the beach over in RI and put
the truck on the rip rap, turn on the tunes and watch the waves go by.

Later,

I can't listen anymore. When I do, it's for the nine o'clock hour
when Sid is the star. :)

I meant to say Niantic, not Nantucket.

How the F it got to Nantucket is beyond me.

I sorta wondered about that. If 15 footers is your idea of white water,
you're a far braver sailor than I! :-)

I dated a girl for a while in college that was from Niantic. Nice place.

Yeah, it is. And it has one of the best bait shops anywhere - -
Hillyer's.

The state launch ramp down there is also very nice, but the exit to
Niantic Bay is a little tricky - the passage under the railroad bridge
is really fun when the tide is running full strength.

All the best,

Tom
