The rain stopped Wednesday, had some sun for a bit....now it's Thursday with rain starting again this afternoon till Saturday.
I thought this rainy weather was supposed to be in Seattle...
Actually, I think this weather is my fault...I reeled in a buds pole a couple weeks ago...SOOoo much smoother n lighter than the old old Penns I have. I had sworn I wasn't going to buy anything nice again since my stuff was stolen after Sandy. But I did and I got one trip with it till the weather turned, I've been busting to catch something on it...
Doug- Cool shot of the lock. What is the crane for? Besides the obvious, lifting stuff.
I like the idea of running to a final end-of-season destination. Seems like an event to reflect on the seasons' happenings and look forward to next year.
You are right in closing up the boat is nicer before the weather turns.
I tend to wait too long in hopes of catching one last "nice" striped bass before hauling the boat, power washing and winterizing. By then the water on the dock has been shut off, the powerwasher spray chills me to the bone and winterizing has my hands locking up in the cold. Of course it's too cold to clean up the cabin so that is put off till spring. Maybe this season I'll settle on one of the earlier fish being "nice" enough.
I thought for a second you were flying my Clubs burgee, it looks to be a very similar design with the same colors... Seattle Yacht Club?
