nosrednaydujWe took out the first 2/3 of the dock today. It was 56° in the water, which means wetsuit required, but not as cold as it would be if we waited until the first week in December, which we sometimes do. Mostly that's because we have some fantasy that people who are visiting for Thanksgiving would like to have a sail on the sailboat, but mostly it doesn't happen. It has happened, so it's not without precedent, but mostly it doesn't. And this year, many of the people who would normally have come to our Thanksgiving are having a separate Thanksgiving, so it will be small, not full of sailors. So, we might take the sailboat out sometime sooner than Thanksgiving also. Today, it was pretty calm, and would have been annoying to try to get the boat to the launch ramp.
The last 1/3 of the dock we will wait until later, but it will be easier because it is shallower. I'm sure that I will go canoeing with Valerie in the next few weeks, and that's a lot easier if the canoe is already on the dock. I might kayak, so we left my kayak also on the dock. We haven't completely put away the windsurfer, but we've taken it out of the water. I don't really seem to be inspired to go. It's cold, you know?
