Was thinking last night's ride home was gonna be a washout. After loading the boat in the rain, I headed out just in time to enjoy clearing skies and a pretty nice sunset!Name:  20210526_195820.jpeg

I came in around 6pm with storm right behind me. Dropped everyone at Glendale and as soon as I got into Smith Cove the wind started to howl. About 1 minute before backing into my slip it started dumping rain. I don't think I have ever gotten so soaked in my life!

Before the Dory, I had many rides like that. I used to tell people that I could have walked through a car wash and not get as wet!

I love living vicariously through your pictures! Hopefully once the RE market settles down and island places become reasonable again I can contribute my own some day!

Have fun out there and enjoy!

True story...I had posted a picture of the lake with not another boat in sight on a " i boat on winni" page and jokingly made a comment about feeling lonely. Somebody commented " oh, you're not alone...everytime you go by us , we yell out C-Nile, and the dog barks! Made me laugh! Yesterday afternoon, i had to do some shopping in town, and my wife ( who generally never leaves the island) came along. Pulling out of Glendale on the way back, I boated past Belknap Point. There were 6 or 8 people standing on a dock and they all started waving, so I blew the horn at them. My wife, who is never on the boat, said " what was that all about?" I said with a straight face " oh, it's like people who yell " mount" when the Mt. Washington goes by...they wave, yell out C-Nile, and all their dogs bark!" She thinks the boat is aptly named....
