Bell Harbor Marina

It was a winter of discontent.



Sheesh...that would require me to look a bit more closely...I'd say
about half that...around 2000-2100 words.

I really don't know why anyone boats "for pleasure" up there, but I know
a lot of people do. Even where I grew up in New England, "boating
weather" was bathing suit weather, and the water temps in Long Island
Sound were not bad from June through Labor Day. Not so in Seattle. Rain,
cloudy, cold weather. If I lived there, I'd had a totally different hobby.

Harry, you have a totally different hobby now! Who are you trying to kid?
