Welcome


Welcome.

I created this blog to document the sights of our boating season
for our family and friends to follow.

Enjoy the tour.

Day 8.

Today was a bit of a maintenance day.  I've been wanting to finish polishing the hull part that I couldn't get to while the boat was in storage.  I needed to turn the boat around in the slip to get that done.  I finally did that today.

and performed the wax on, wax off operation.

Since there was a cool north breeze today, this worked out well for Kathy so she could be downwind on the back deck to supervise the work while working on a sewing project.

With Kathy's superior guidance, I put a nice gloss on the starboard side of the boat.

The wind continued to blow throughout the day so we didn't go out on the lake.

One thing about being here during the week.  There isn't much company.  The dock is void of the usual weekend social gatherings.

Yesterday's north wind blew out all the warm surface waters so the fishery is likely to suffer for a few days.  The surface temperature went from 73 degrees yesterday to 42 degrees today.  I'll see if by some chance this cold water has chased some fish toward shore in the morning.  Tomorrow is the last day forecast to be calm for several days.

Just one of those years.  Maybe I need to take up sewing as well.  Not so weather dependant.
