Dont forget the wind will blow right when you're about to dock also, every time!

Well we don't have snow yet but I always look at it like this. If its gonna be this cold bring on the snow. They're calling for 3-6" Friday night through Sunday, so that's exciting. Smh. Might have to get back into sledding, but that chit started to cost as much as a boating weekend!

For the rest up there to see just how bad the south sees your seasonal depression.....

Local jeweler here is advertising any jewelry bought between now and dec 24 is free (refund) if pa gets 6 or more inches of that white stuff on Christmas......

However, we only get that from the ares downtown that are economically depressed ( politically correct enough?) or when fishing for square grouper and run across a load of it floating

I look at snow as just helping the water levels... and Michigan needs snow.

We had "sleds" when I was a kid but we really don't get enough snow around here to justify having one. Nowhere really to ride anymore due to all of the farmland being bought up and developed. When my son gets a little older we are going to go out to Yellowstone and do one of the snowmobile tours out there.

I almost wish I didn't get a chance to test drive the new to me boat. 8 hours later I was shrink wrapping it!


This will be the longest winter by far for me. As soon as the ice melts we will be out again next year.

Road trip, it's always warm down here, good luck with the new boat, btw.
