    Snowy winter boat ride on Lake Norman
    #1
    I just got done touching up the bottom paint on the Sea Ray and put it back in last Sunday. I couldn't resist going out today. It wasn't bad once I got the frozen ropes untied. I think the high was about 25 today. You Northern boys probably do this all the time but this is the most snow we have had here in a few years.

    Water is nice and muddy from all the rain last week.

    Rope on Viagra

    Governer's Island

    Since all the bars were closed I just came back to the dock and had a few.

    Maybe a little...Boat has been out of the water for a couple months while I was working on the bottom so I was having withdrawal sympton today. I don't know how you guys can handle the long winters. I was just pissed all the bars were closed cause the roads are so bad.

    I talked to David while he was out yesterday and he said it was so warm in the boat he was in a t-shirt, i think he said 3 heaters going. David years ago i had a 38 ft houseboat and evertime it snowed we loaded up the boat, cut on the heat, got the bar stocked and had a ball.

    Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you: Jesus Christ and the
    American Military. One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.
