Subject: SUNDAY, sunday Chat 01.23.22 by TommyT-Bone on 2022/1/23 10:31:00 G'mornin. Vacation was enjoyable. Visited with friends, fished on 4 of the days, enjoyed a great venison feast night, a grilled pizza night with other friends in Marathon, FL played Texas Hold Em one night. It was an enjoyable annual breakaway. On the not so good news side 3 of our friends were diagnosed with cancer related issues over the last year. One with leukemia, one with two brain tumors (one removed) and another with lung cancer for a guy that has never smoked. All are in their 60's and 70's. All are from Michigan. Sue is doing OK adjusting to the loss of her mom. Took the boat out but like driving a car, it gives you a chance to identify problems. Bilge float switch quit working so I just did manual purges, hand held GPS digital screen is fading, hand held marine radio battery won't keep a charge, fixed marine radio needs a new antenna, need to replace the depth finder becasuse I rigged the transducer to work temporarily. It has a broken plastic mount. And the kicker, on the last day I spun the prop. That means I need a new hub in my propeller. "A boat is a hole in the water into which one pours money." Sue's 911 ran great and we used it as a runabout. Plenty of work lies ahead at the house, the nursery, plus Sue added a few company honey do's. Never bored. Not me. Never bored. Early post. My mind wouldn't let me sleep and I was up at 4:56. |
