My wife loves the out doors . She likes to hike,bike , hunt , she loves to camp out and swim.But, she is not a boater. She only fishes ,,well , like, never. This morning I herd words come from her mouth I didnt expect.
"Im really looking forward to going out in our boat" I about fell over. I gave her one of those looks like

. And she went on to elaborate. " I am really lookin forward to putting around in the boat while you boys fish, I can read a book and let the warm breeze wash me. "
Made my day!!!! :grin: id. painter

So id.... when are you leaving for Cabo with the boat??

:grin: That's about the only place my wife likes to "fish". Oregon coast does not fit her definition of "warm breeze" and the Pacific Ocean swell/chop odes not fit her definition of "putting around". Oh well... I didn't marry her for her fishing abilities! :grin:

It ain't just yer wife, id. I drug the boat out yesterday and ran the motors, checked out the electronics, added a little more stabil to the gas, adjusted the crank on the trailer, checked out the lights .... and almost wept when I put her back in the shop. :depressed:

How many more days?

You hit it right on the head Mel.
I will work on the Cabo thing for next year,

.
In her mind we are trolling on American Falls res. the temp is near 95, slight breeze , no chop or swell, and she can swim if the fishing is slow. We are needing the top up for the shade.
Sounds nice , eh . id. painter

Hasnt hit me yet though,, oh no ,, not me...
I spend at least an hour or so in the boat every day. I have cleaned the windows multi times . I actually started to shine her up . I turn on the V.H.F. and listen to the weather. And most of all DREAM. id. p.
