Geez, some people make you wait all day for their posts. So I guess it's up to me to start this off.

My nephew is coming down from Vermont heading out to Amagansett. he will have dinner here, so I have to cook something special, and then take dad home with him.

Tomorrow I was going to head out to the scout camp hang for the day, but with the rain predicted I may just stay home and clean the basement. At least then I will be out of the way of the War Department.

Finalizing all the paperwork needed for my new home, signing a listing agreement for my mom's co-op so she can move next to us.

If anyone is interested her co-op is right on the beach in Rockaway, Queens, in great shape and plenty of fish in the surf steps away from her building.

Get some rest!

I am going to try to catch up on some sleep! I have the boat just about done just have to put the new filters on and fill them up with oil. Then it's off the gas station and in the water. If I catch a break with the weather maybe it will go in on Sunday. Have a good one!

As long as I can get outside, I think I am gonna clean up the basement so that the spackle guy can do his thing Monday without tons o'crap in his way. That means gettin' stuff into the backyard and using the compressor to clean all my tools, sawhorses, etc. that have been neglected during the dusty renovation down there.

If I have time, I just might buy that whirpool tub and start on the bathroom.

Tonight ~ no real plans. I already dropped the boat cover off to get repaired / modified. Take the pooch out to the beach and then figure what I want to buy and then cook for supper. I will then watch the Mets game on television.

I thought about going to the game tonight seeing it is ?Dog Night? and all, but I went to the game Tuesday and leaving work early after taking off Tuesday might be frowned upon :rolleyes: . I would have to get there real early so me & my Pal could do the walk around like a couple of years ago. There is another ?Dog Night? in September, and we will be at that one.




Saturday ~ Do some cleaning at home, and re caulk the bathtub and then head over to the shop and work on the boat.

I have to move it back on the trailer so I can touch up where I could not get to when I bottom painted it a couple of weeks ago. Scuff up the lower unit and clear coat that and then put in a new bilge pump. I removed the zincs the other night and after clear coating I will put the new ones in. One of the zincs was pretty well hidden, but my local guy helped me out.

Sunday ~ Scrub a dub, dub and thoroughly clean the boat. After a good thorough cleaning I will compound and wax it. I will pull it outside (rain or shine) to wash it, and then pull it back inside to dry and detail it.

I will also scout out some fishing spots more carefully (with binoculars;)) that I have seen some swirls at the last several days. I know some bait and fish are around. I saw an osprey munching on a flounder last weekend.

After this weekend the boat will be ready to dunk one evening next week, figured I just might do a little fishing while I am checking it out
. Although I should be practicing pulling in and out of slips before they get too crowded (never did it before
) but the urge to wet the line seems to be taking priority in my lil? head.

Gonna make as much progress as I can on the boat to get it ready to get in.
Luckily I got the bottom painted during the week and I'll work on as much mechanical stuff as I can over the weekend between the rain.

BOO HOO

I have to work Saturday :(( from home) and either saturday eve/night at the office and Sunday get my truck set for it's first day of work this year.( fit and organize all my paperwork ( takes up the entire passenger seat).Get er scrubed inside and out.

But since I put the boat in the water last weekend, and my landscaper did a un-autherized spring cleanup, fertilation and seeding, that's less things I need to do .

No days off this month


HEY KOZ- I tried one slip with the same conditions I thought I would have when I got to my slip, Got it perfect the first try, then when I got to my slip the wind picked up and it took me 3 tries,( more nervous as slips next to mine had boats in them. But I think it went well and should not be a concern after a couple more tries.

Well, it's time to bring snakes up from brumation in basement all winter.
So, I got to set up tanks.
I am looking to sell my black and white banded Cailfornia Kingsnake.

It is 5 yrs old this spring and approx 3' long.
That way I'll just have one tank for my pair of old Corn Snakes.
I've had them for 11 years now....


Then I gotta do a monthly cleaning on the fish tank....

I will also fire up the bike...

Dont let the rain stop you guys
get out ther and build one of these to put your boat in. Then you can work on it in the rain and gives you a place to call your own
. Kind of makes the 24ft. walkaround look small
.

..............I built my geeerage, 24ft X 36ft but because of difference of opinion..it's not tall enough to fit HOAF.:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

For now, I'm sittin at the St Maarten airport. Our flight has been delayed from 1:30 to 3:45pm.......

So, now I won't be getting home till around 9pm.......

..........and my laptop is dying rapidly.....need power...........hope it holds out a bit...........:rolleyes::rolleyes:

Had a great time and can't wait to get back home to the wonderful warm spring weather and take my scooter for a nice ride.......
