Getting The Boat Ready!

We finally got a decent day and decided to get the boat and trailer ready for opening of bass season this weekend. It was even nice enough to be able to open our windows and air out the house! The guys had a lot of stuff to do and they decided to rewire the trailer and fix the lights on it.

One of the things they had to do was get the yellow jacket nests out of the tubing part of it! I stayed indoors for that- I have no intentions of getting stung!

Of course, they couldn't get it all done today. They have a shopping trip planned for 7:00 a.m. to get a long list of supplies. I volunteered to stay home and sleep

"And this bolt goes right there!"

Thomas seems to be getting a bit of a burn doesn't he? Well, by evening he looked like a lobster. He's moving a little slow tonight- bet he doesn't sleep very well!

Are all these tools really necessary? It's just a little trailer!

There's our little boat and motor waiting patiently to be used again this year. It's just a small boat but it works for the lakes we like to go on.

This weekend we will be going to a small lake nicknamed "Mud Lake" It's proper name is Lake Dubonnet. We will be fishing mainly for large mouth bass and northern pike.

We still haven't been able to do any more hikes because of the rotten weather but hopefully we will be doing some of them again soon.
