Summer's Coming!

I can feel it. It's coming. I went out to the marina today, being chased by the cold front moving over us. I got there bathed in sunshine, and 64 degrees! It was great. Then it got dark, then it got windy, then it got wet! Really wet. Man did it come down. I was huddled under the tarp in WhisperIII putting the instruments in. The boat was shaking from the wind, and the tarp was about to take off. Then then sun came out again! Sweet. I made my way over to Alert, and bathed in the sun on the deck. It was nice. Then it got dark, then it got windy....
Just a small amount of ice left on the bay, and the lake was a bit on the wild side. There were frogs croaking all over the place. Good sign. Haven't heard them in a while.
Lot's of geese everywhere, and some berry eating sky crapper that's targeting my deck! Even with all the work to get done, it is amazing how the stress rolls off you when you see the boat. Oh hey, I almost forgot about Easter. Hope everyone got to spend some time with their families last week (missed you Nic). I also hope everyone gave some thought about peace in the world. We could use some for a change. Use your voice and make it happen! We all need to lighten up a little, in our politics, our world affairs etc. Especially when it comes to religion.
