Oh the Joy! Every day is Saturday...

11/10/09. Well, in reality - today is tuesday.

My sister told me to stop writing all those "all work and no play" entries on my BLOG. she said i need to post some happy, fun times too.

Last week Buzzy came to visit and we went sailing. Hey Sis - we had fun!



There, i feel better with that out of the way. Now, what's going on? I picked up the galvanized chain and anchor. $155 and 450 pounds. (it's in the trunk of my car which leans to it's right) this will help protect the chain from rust.

BEFORE AFTER

I've finally taken apart the Windlass motor - to change the oil. The oil had turned into a thick peanut butter gunk with water mixed in. it took a couple of days to get all that out and cleaned up. (i have replacement parts on order with the manufacturer to rebuild it all) now tomorrow i'll put the chain and anchor back in.



it's a puzzle Sis, i'm just having a blast with this 46 foot jig saw boat puzzle...

ps. i shaved off the santa beard. (fat kids kept sitting on me.)
