Tuesday 6.29.10

It is HOT!!! and MUGGY!!! but we are launching anyways. (gotta see if those Hella fans are worth the money). At least, that’s my excuse to Jim…

The day didn’t start too well….Jim wanted to limb one last tree in the driveway…got the limber stuck…pulled,…yanked…got on a step ladder and tried to reach it…no luck…a final twist and yank busted the durn thing….Shoot!! Jim was hot and sweaty..and not a bit happy…and when he slid the extension pole to shorten it…he caught the web of skin between thumb and forefinger in it and split it wide open…

Once that was cleaned up and a couple of butterfly bandages applied..along with some neosporin…I cut several pieces of my Aloe plant to take with us also……

We headed to the lake…

Now it was even hotter!!! Once the dingy was inflated and stowed on the swim platform we headed N.

Would you believe..we forgot our new flag!!! On the 4th of July weekend…

We decided to go straight to G3, Lungun Island. It’s a short distance to the launch ramp in Astor ..an Ace hardware is within walking distance…we’ll get a flag tomorrow…

We dropped the hook a bit before dark…

The Hella fans will get a workout tonight!!
