Memorial day weekend

Everyone have a safe, enjoyable weekend and hopefully spend it in a boat. (CC of course! } I've taken two extra days off and will be heading up north tomorrow morning at probably around 4:30 to beat the traffic. I'll be getting the boats ready for summer. The water is WAY up this year so it's certainly not like last year when there wasn't enough to get the boats out of the boat house!

Tomorrow almost was delayed! Wednesday morning the truck wouldn't start. I ended up having to take a tow truck to work with my truck on the back end of it!! The mechanic I like and use is within walking distance of work. Wouldn't you know it - he was on vacation, but did back this morning and was able to look at it and fix the problem. One glow plug relay and while he was at it put in a set of glow plugs - 3 were burnt out but that's expected with 230K miles on them.

Keep those boats running!!!

Happy Holiday weekend to all. My truck is getting a new/ used motor this weekend. No towing the boat for me . Trading the motor with 188k miles and very little oil pressure for one with 86k miles. Should work a little better, and get me ready for the trip to green lake!

with the water up, there will be floating submerged logs.....bad for you, good for me, but, be careful all and safely boat and watch out for the other guy

Since my season started back in January, I pulled her out of the dock and up to the house for the holiday weekend detail. I'll also be adding some batteries for the stereo and cleaning up the wiring a bit. Looking forward to Monday when I can wave goodbye to the idiots as they leave. We're excepting 15 to 20 mph winds all weekend so I'm not missing a thing and that's supposed to be down to less than 10 mph Tuesday and stay that way through next week.

If your getting out, have fun and stay safe.

I hear ya brother. It's so much more than just hot dogs, hamburgers and fun boats. We must never forget why we can enjoy all of this and many other freedoms that are taken for granted every single day.

Thanks Paul for your years of service as well.

Have a safe and enjoyable weekend everyone!

I hear you. I think I put a whole .1 hours on the boat this weekend. Moved it over 1 lift Friday afternoon then to the ramp Monday morning. I put my boat away for summer.

steve, that's exactly my strategy. wakeboard in the morning...pontoon all day.
the weather wasn't so good this year, so I taught the girls how to shoot...
