The Good - After three weeks of waiting for a dry weekend, I finally splashed last Sunday. My wife, son, and I got to spend a couple of hours on the lake. Perfect stress reliever for my son before finals next week.
The Bad - Walking to back my truck in the trailer lot I notice a bunch of broken reflective material right behind my trailer. Surely it's not mine!?!? Sure enough someone backed their trailer into mine and hit it hard. They shattered my taillight and bent the heck out of the steel backing plate. And then of course, they took off without reporting it to the state park ranger that was parked at the ramp all the while.
The Ugly - As I'm loading the boat onto the trailer, the guy in the lane next to me pulls a stunt I hadn't seen before. He pulls his bass boat forward onto his bunks, opens up his outboard WOT, and yells "Hit It" to his truck driver who pulls the boat out of the water and up the ramp while the outboard is still screaming. Guy in the boat kills the motor AFTER those of us in the adjacent lanes get a nice spray of water from the prop. Mind you there was NO bow strap or safety chain connected. He literally power loaded his way up the ramp.
It was a weird day.
