Well, that's funny. My marriage happened to fall apart this spring - can you believe she blames the boat? So I spent the weekend avoiding any kind of work around the house - let the new owners worry about that. Instead I focused my energies on the boat - stripping the velvet drive and repainting it - a nice "Old Ford Blue". Can't wait to throw it on the rebuilt motor... three weeks and counting.
Ah, you poor bastards that still need to worry about things like yards and decks! Now I just need to find a garage for sale with room for a bed and nightstand - preferably on the water. Can you believe she blames the boat??

Gawd I hate that. >
boat stuff?? NONE - it's still in winter dry dock. May bring it home this weekend but since we can't take it to the summer storage until 01 May, and it'll only take a day to de-winterize, I may just wait til later in April.
Went to a great nursery auction and bought way to many plants, shrubs,and a few trees. Now to get them all planted !
Just bought a Marine Kit to install my XM radio on the boat and should have it completed next weekend. This will provide any music necesary for spring fit up, cleaning, waxing, buffing. Can't wait for splash day in two weeks!
