Close!!

We're very near to completing all our provisioning and getting the house rent-ready. I have 4 more work days and hopefully Elle & I will be in the water by June 1. We're just that close.

Floating in June

Yep, that's the goal. I've got 28 more days till I retire, and 30 more till we launch the boat weather permitting. I'm so excited I just can't hide it!

Inverter Cables

I stopped at Carr Hardware and got 10 plastic cable carriers. I'll put one every foot on each cable using self-tapping tech screws. The screws don't sink real deep, so that's why I'm using so many carriers. Hopefully it will be pretty straight forward. It's supposed to rain this weekend, but we'll have to wait and see.

Weeks that is. Elaine is leaving work at Williams College in 7 weeks, while I will be leaving Tierney Properties, Inc. in 13 weeks. Still so much to do, but less than yesterday.

16 Tons and what do you get

Another day older and deeper in debt! Sooo, I guess I'll stay away from mining. I am getting days older 'cause my 62nd. Birthday (can you say Officially retired!) is just a few days away. In 16 tons, I mean 16 weeks TPI and I will part company. Elaine will be leaving Williams College on the 20th. of April. We're still packing up the house, and sorting out boat stuff. Still so much to do, but less than a few days ago!
