So, Finally Got the Boat in the Water

About the latest I've ever gotten it in the water as well.

April and May were just too cool, then, I was gone for two and a half weeks in June and the Chain of Lakes was down to no wake until the 4th of July. We don't go out during that holiday period; way too many people.

Then, I had to get it summerized.


A DAY OF BOATING

Picked it up today at Midwest Marine and launched it. Liz drove to Rick's in Fox Lake where we keep it. I dropped the trailer off at Kora's since our subdivision does not allow boats or trailers to be parked in driveways or yards.

Met Liz at Rick's and went for the first boating of the season. Lots of wind today so the water was rough. Plus, every so often, some really menacing clouds rolled through.

Even so, we floated around Stanton Bay and then cruised over to Captain's Quarters for their Thursday special 35 cent wings and potato skins. Hard deal to beat.

Anyway, I'm hoping to get out on the boat at least 30 times this year.

Hopefully, since the boat is in the water, we won't have too many problems with the zebra mussels.
