So what sort of work...........................
 
.............did you get done on your boat this weekend?

Being boatless for the moment we spent the weekend attending to the yard and
deck.

Gawd I hate that. :-(

Well, that's funny. My marriage happened to fall apart this spring - can
you believe she blames the boat? So I spent the weekend avoiding any kind
of work around the house - let the new owners worry about that. Instead I
focused my energies on the boat - stripping the velvet drive and repainting
it - a nice "Old Ford Blue". Can't wait to throw it on the rebuilt motor...
three weeks and counting.

Ah, you poor *******s that still need to worry about things like yards and
decks! Now I just need to find a garage for sale with room for a bed and
nightstand - preferably on the water. Can you believe she blames the boat??

Just built a huge deck around my pool, still "finishing up", and
probably will be for a year! The thing looks like an aircraft carrier
deck!

boat stuff?? NONE - it's still in winter dry dock. May bring it home
this weekend but since we can't take it to the summer storage until 01
May, and it'll only take a day to de-winterize, I may just wait til
later in April.

Went to a great nursery auction and bought way to many plants,
shrubs,and a few trees. Now to get them all planted !

Just bought a Marine Kit to install my XM radio on the boat and should have
it completed next weekend. This will provide any music necesary for spring
fit up, cleaning, waxing, buffing. Can't wait for splash day in two weeks!
