A Monday in Retirement: Goodbye 2011 Boating Season

I just hate this retirement hassle.

Yesterday on the internet and posting to these blogs. Chicago sports fans should take a look at my history blog at http://cootershistorything.blogspot.com. I'm doing a Chicago sports relics from the Tribune.

We went boating and eagle hunting. Didn't find any bald eagles, but did find two likely nests on Fox Lake.

Took the boat out of the water at the Legion with little difficulty. Since I only move the boat usually twice a year, I am not very good at backing that trailer into the water. Then, there's the fun of getting the boat positioned onto the trailer.

Drove it over to Midwest Marine on Lake Marie, dropped it off and had a season celebratory pitcher at the Sand Bar and talked with a couple who graduated from NIU on 1976 and remembered a lot of local restaurants and places in the northwest suburbs, including that great Honey Hill Beach in Wauconda.

Then went to Tommy's in Spring Grove and had some sandwich wraps.
