I’m pretty sure I’ve heard that before, somewhere, maybe, or maybe something close to that, or maybe I just dreamed it, or...isn’t that a famous quote?
Oh dang, I’m all confused now

Yes-- where in the Seattle are did you construct this beauty?
My company started it awhile back.
I landed here a couple weeks ago, brought in to finish it out.
A fair bit South for me, in Kent.

Hey, come on down to Tallahassee and build me one of those. I can't get a concrete contractor to even return calls. Probably called 20. Tried several GC's, same thing.

A long way from LaConner to Kentucky.
Has Covid decreased traffic on 1-5?
We’re pretty much back to pre-pandemic traffic levels here in AZ.

Luckily I still have the N Seattle house, although it’s pretty empty.
At 5AM, it’s only 20 minutes away from the job site.
Going home can ****.

Merry Christmas Riv, I used to work in Everett so I had a reverse commute and I used to wonder how all the people heading north for the afternoon commute could do it. It was usually bogged down if not bumper to bumper.
Meanwhile I was zipping by in the southbound lanes with only a small hiccup in Lynwood.

Merry Christmas Jay!
I remember back when there was a reverse commute.
Seems it clogs up both ways pretty equally anymore.
Best bet is to leave early

Moved the Gheenoe into the shop for some minor repairs.
No need for a hole in any kind of boat
But first I had to smoke some pork loin.
All in all, it turned out to be a great day!

I got a couple minutes to work in the shop this morning before the wind knocked the power out.
Just as I was getting situated for a nap on the couch, the power came back on.
I chose to ignore the fact that the power was back on, and continued on with my nap. Mostly, because fiberglass work just isn’t that much fun.

Tool/Puget,
It’s my day off, and I can nap if I want to!
Somebody should write a song

Oh, I can be a diva if I don’t get my sleep, or a Snickers
An inch and a half of rain and 45 mph winds on my day off makes me a bit grouchy too!

You would really enjoy our slice of heaven, up here at 64 degrees north!
Hang in there, the days are getting longer, I tell myself.

I grew up at latitude 58, so this is just water off a ducks back for me.
Y’all up further North are a tad crazy
I can stand in the shop drinking coffee all day long, and be happy.
I was looking forward to getting one of the 3 boats out of the shop this weekend.
Oh well, there’s always next week

Hell, we had 70 degrees and a three hour torrential downpour yesterday.

This is my first winter in retirement and I'm struggling with this like I thought was going to happen. Coved restrictions aren't helping any either..

COVID can go away now.
The weatherman was wrong about today, the clouds parted, and the wind died down.
I was able to get the Gheenoe out into the driveway to finish the prep work and a couple coats of glass.
Then on to some maintenance/winterization of the big boat.
RV antifreeze, stabil in the fuel, batteries on the trickle charger, fan set up to control condensation. Still need to fog the cylinders.
Never a lack of things to do around here
