Weekend Plans
Finally getting over covid, so will be working on all the things I've missed, including cutting the grass for two weeks. Looks like a meadow, not like a lawn.
What's up for the weekend?

Self inflicted PT,
Try to figure out why the outbound won’t turn over faster so she’ll start… grrrr
It’s two months later than my normal shakedown and it’s mad at me I’m sure….. 
Tons of yard work to do after after not being able to do much…
Tangueray and tonics with lime on the deck …  |

Finally launching tomorrow. MIL was in hospital for a few days and we have lost and are slowly regaining our voices... (and MIL is bouncing off the wall on steroids...)

Just finished cooking and cracking four 2-1/2 lb lobster's. My wife and her sister had a small feast. Little necks and sea scollops too. Tomorrow we have a family party and Sunday I head to Horseback with the camper for 2 weeks.

Nephew backed me down the ramp while I was aboard. No start..... Took it right back to the Boat Shop and texted him that it was there. Wife is more disappointed as she was this close to her weekends of freedom! LOL. Not one of my finer ten minutes but I am over it. So I am changing gears and headed into the yard with pruners.

You have to laugh, every day...
I am told it was an air bubble in fuel line "because it sat for so long and you probably didn't have3 any fuel in it." I wasn't in the mood to argue. Had twenty gallons in it when he did the spring commissioning on motor, electrical, and plumbing systems three weeks ago... And I added 9 gallons last night. I also had tried pumping the ball and it felt firm. I really don't care as long as it starts tomorrow morning. (and I find a driver...) |

Launched, started, add some fuel, two macs on troll out and two slot fish released on way to my mooring. Heard a tick, tick, tick, like a lifter, but I know two strokes don't have that.... Make a new boat list and get ready for niece's engagement party later on.

Hey Ross, relax and enjoy, I just roasted some cauliflower and grilled swordfish and steak. Now on the deck kicking back.
Got the lawn tractor stuck mowing the pond enbankments. Had Jeanne help, It was good to see her on a tractor and enjoying herself,
Thank you honey!!!
