Is summer over already? I didnt even think it started yet. We only got about 2 weeks of it up here in Wisconsin. My only hope is we can find a few more warm days yet so I can get my boat out one last time.

It's my fault. I purchased more carbon credits than I really needed and threw Global Warming in reverse.

With all that hot air up there in the north, I'd think it would be warmer :D

Besides, you guys are letting that cold stuff drift down here in Ohio. Thats ok, my boat has heat also :D Nothing like waking up to a hot cup of coffee only to look out and see snow on the docks :D......I remember a few years back that happened.

It doesn't drift down there, it gets pulled down there cause Ohio sucks!! haha!! Not all of Ohio, just the parts that aren't Cedar Point.

Afraid so, you know it's over when you have to turn on your headlights on the drive to work in the morning.

You don't feel earthquakes on the water ;)
flooding, fires and hurricanes... well that's a little different story.

Spring was not good to us here in Ontario this year. July was so so, August relly rocked though and now it's cooling off again. Hopefully Canadian thanksgiving will be as good to us this year as it was last year !!! 90 degrees in these parts.

Re: Was that it?

My summer has been good. This is my first summer owning a boat and I managed to put about 50 hours on the hour meter. Its sad to see it end, but I guess all good things come to an end. Now its time to clean it, overhaul the sound system, ect, ect... Just because summer is about over doesn't mean I can't spend quality time on the boat...lol.

Re: Was that it?

Do you know what the end of summer is here?????

The start of Hurricane season! :eek:

Yeah, I know they say June, but I have beren evacuated two Labor Day weekends over the years. Now with Ike just brushing by us we dodged another one. So far. You know they have occasionally done a back track!

And the season has been known to run into November...

Oh well, just another wonderful day in paradise!

Ain't that the truth. Always makes me feel like I've given my whole day to "the man".
