Scary. What's the problem? Maybe it's time to cash your boat in,
and/or get a different boat?

Yup...go smaller, or bigger. If bigger, keep on a mooring at a local boat
club.

The rest of you...well, you can continue to tickle each other's belly
buttons.





Maybe you need a different sort of boat.

Damn, I want that 10 min of my life back. I have been robbed.

I thought I was a boater, while you spent the last 2 weekends posting on
rec.boats, I was actually spent 6 days with my family on my boat, but if
this is the criteria, I guess I am not a boater.

I did notice that NONE of these boats had that cut out on their transom.
How does the water get out of them boats without an open transom?


I'll bet there are some very good deals on used 4WD trucks down there if
you can live with the rusted rear springs, wheels, brakes, exhaust
systems, differentials, etc. Even the boats with the tongue extensions
got splashed.

Will let you know tomorrow.
Today was a big day...... mom finally got the word that a nursing home bed
was ready for her. We drove her to her new spot in a town 40 miles from the
city.
This is a temporary measure...as she had submitted her top three choices of
homes but she had to take the first bed open. When one becomes
available from her preferred list, she moves again.... hopefully before
winter.

for JohnH..
If you're coming to visit mom you can stay at this beautiful property right
next door to the nursing home.

We went through the living at home, independant living, assisted living
and finally nursing home scenario with my Mom. I can understand the time
and effort you and your family are going through Don and wish you, your
Mom and your family the best.


Thanks Jim. By the time our generation starts looking for a spot, they'll
have to errect a tent city on our Commons.
(too many baby boomers...too few spots)

I'm glad to hear things are working out well for your mom.

Last night 20-20 ran a special on health care. Canada didn't come out
looking very good, mostly because of the waiting aspect of your health
care. It seems dogs and cats have a much better shot at getting a quick MRI
than do humans.

It sounds like your mom had to undergo some of the waiting also. Damn
shame, but all is well now. Good!
