.............work on the boat this weekend. It looks like Spring is finally
here.

Splash will most likely happen early............well behind plan.

The new John Deere will also come out of hiding this weekend to finally do
some work.

For you fellow northerners.........has Spring arrived for you yet? When do
you plan to splash?

Supposed to be sunny & 12 C on Sunday. We've had a cool damp windy April
and I've got tons of work around the house & boat before I even think of
launching. I'll probably hit the water around Victoria Day in late May.

Same here..........luckily I was able to get some of the outside chores done
during the days of warmth and sunshine we had this Spring.

Thank goodness for erasers. Yet another silly edit. :-)

Unless they turn the fan off, staying off the water.

Be careful! Don't hurt that back again.

Still waiting here. Finally looks like the weather is finally making the change for the better. Looking like I may hit the water sometime around the 28th.

Small craft warnings here also...........north winds making the Lake pretty
choppy for us. It will stay that way at least until Sunday.

I have to raise the bottom paint water line, touch up some of the bottom
paint and add a 3 step ladder (getting rid of the 2 step). After that a
wash and wax will make it ready to splash as the remaining work (installing
new GPS/Fishfinder) can be done with the boat in the water at the dock.

Was out for opening of Salmon Season 2 weeks ago, and the water was rough,
but the party was good. We have had lots of sheep in the meadow on the
ocean the last 2 weeks. Gotten cold, snow on Donner Summit yesterday. Down
to the 50's today. 15-20+ mph winds most of the week. The bigger boats
were getting some nice salmon today down off Monterey. With last years bad
season, a lot of the salmon postponed the swim upriver, so the fish we are
getting this year are large. Lots of 20-30# salmon this early in the season
is unusual. The lakes are pumping out bass and trout of you can get out of
the wind.

As predicted we are enjoyed a blue sky day today, temps in the mid 50's (we
are close to the Lake and it keeps our temps down in the Spring), with even
better temps predicted for tomorrow and Sunday.
