What happened to Winter?

3/16/2015

Mind you, we're not complaining, but...

Here in the Northwest part of the country, we have had an amazingly mild Winter. To many Oregonians, this portents an ill Summer -- drought, disease, famine -- but for us, we're grateful just to have had such amazing weather for doing boat work!

March 1st started with crunchy cold docks, but warmed to almost 70. And it had nice days all around it!
The last couple months we've been helping neighbors with their boat projects, interspersed with some Moontide tasks that we're still working on.  These include: lids for the propane tanks in the aft cockpit, repair of the main hatch (nasty leaks), a new pedestal for the dining table in the saloon, and insulated ceilings in the main cabin.

Gabrielle is certain we have gremlins on the boat-- happy gremlins, it seems -- because projects seem to be working out just the way we plan them.  We're determined not to let it go to our heads... but we want to get lots of projects done while the luck lasts!
Oh, yes. Happy St. Patrick's Day!
