nosrednaydujI went windsurfing on Thursday. Unfortunately I didn't get around to it until the wind was already dropping for the day, but it was okay anyway. Water temperature around 55, which is pretty warm for November. Air was around 60. Which is also pretty warm for November. 78, which we had a couple of days ago, is really warm for November.
Today we took the sailboat out of the water. It was pretty windy and very exciting sailing up to the launch ramp. They have removed all of the navigation buoys from the lake, so we had to remember where the shallow bits were. We did not hit anything. They also removed the dock from next to the launch ramp, so I wore waders so I could just to jump in when it got shallow enough and help guide the boat onto the trailer which somebody else had cleverly backed into the water before we arrived.
Then we took a lot of things out of the garage and stuck the waterproof things (e.g. water skis) just randomly out in the lawn, and the less waterproof things under our canopy, which we erected for the purpose, and the really non-waterproof things in the house. Because, in theory, the people who are redoing our garage floor are going to start soon. Disaster scenario: they do the demolition part and then cannot do the pouring cement part until spring. Fingers crossed! They say they will not leave us in the lurch.
