End of Season Blues
 
Just made my appointment for the shrink wrap guy for the third week in
November. Hope to get out on my Parker twice before then, weather
permitting. It's been a nice season on the Bay, made even better by the
fact that I never encountered the Wretched Herring.

Yes, I've noticed my pool heater has to run a little longer in the
morning before it warms up.

How's the housing market down there? Must be some decent deals available.
Maybe it's time to mosey south and look around a bit.

Been cool here in night. 88 during the day today. Yesterday, coming back
from taking the wife to the airport at 4:30 am was not to bad. Still shorts
and tee shirt. Was up in Burney (3000') last week, and mid 30's at night.
70's during the day. Going out tomorrow I think to San Pablo Bay for some
striper fishing I think.

I was surprised to hear Centex is still building houses here and they
won't build a house without a qualified buyer so something must be
moving.
There is a little 1300 sq/ft shack around the corner from me that is
going back to the bank at $490k. I imagine it will disappear in a
heartbeat at the $359 Zillow says it is worth tho (riverfront)http://www.zillow.com/homedetails/bi...522146_zpid#st...
(The house on the left, not the one with the big palm tree)
Personally I think it is a teardown on a $200,000 lot. If I thought
they would take $250k as is I would buy it and give it a paint job.


Yup, and we have been approved for over 16,000 worth of credit in the
last month for recreational vehicles. Aside from our low income, our
credit is pretty damn good though... But the fact is, money is out
there, being lent, despite all the bs on the news...

Yes, there are some very decent deals available, especially for people
who can move quickly with little or no financing required.

Are you able to dock your boat behind the house? Someday I'll have to
try and venture up in there with my dinghy. Talk about local
knowledge navigation !

Pretty cool place. There was a road from Martinez to Port Costa
(Carquinez Scenic Road or some such) that was a neat two lane road
with nice views of the straight. When I was living there it was
partially closed because it was sliding down the hill.\

Yup, old Port Costa. Used to be a couple brothels there in my youth. I did
not visit them. One of the brothels from the late 1800's is a B&B now. We
used go out to a fun bar there in the early 1960's. Artsy community now.
