Weekend before the Holiday was spent on Lake Erie....fishing for Walleye with my brother...
His SIL had a little to drink the night before...my brother on right...

The lake was calm both days....makes for easy boating but tough Walleye catching...

The biggest one I caught...

Holiday weekend was spent working in St. Louis...this weekend is yard work....hope to get some boat work in this week though...the Erie trip got me thinking about taking the Ebko on a Walleye hunt next year!

Fishing, yeah, good holiday weekend....

1 is better then none. Caught a few walleye last weekend myself. But mine would best be described as bait for the 1 you caught.

I am going to get the license and go fishing soon with MIss Peachtree. For some reason this is what guys are supposed to do.

Been awhile, but I am still around...

Work(travel), house and honey-do's been keeping me quite busy lately...Travel for work will have me driving up to Maine this coming week. Possibly some more semi-unplanned travel the week after and then just maybe...I get a week off for some boat work!

I got to spend the day cleaning up the garage in anticipation for doing some more gel coat spraying if I get the week off after the fourth... who knows I may build a doghouse for the motor too...will update when I can...

Good to here there's boat work planned. I completely get the no time for boat work. Been forever since I've done any work around my newly occupied workspace too.

Travel safe

The week in Auburn, Maine went by fast. The drive home didn't though :(

It wasn't too bad actually....
Spent yesterday and today cleaning up the garage...dust on everything...was a real chore but I think I got it...

Know what you mean on the driving .. I drive for 30 mins and I'm to stop . Don't think I could ever be a trucker ..
Hmmm, laying down a different color maybe above the tape ?

The Admiral helped me lift the cap into place on the roller support I had the boat on last summer (upside down)

Wish I had the camera to take shots during the execution...but we got it where it needed to go....eventually...

Laid plastic down on the inside of the hull...ready to get some color going...as soon as the PVA arrives...I have wax but am going to pass on using it..had mixed results in the past with it..
