Just seems like we got them all in and its time to take them out again. Spend more time in heated buildings then they do in the water. [img]../images/emoticons/biggrin.gif[/img]

Tireless · 10-23-2006, 11:29 PM

That is one very fine view Andy.......I am envious.

rkatz · 10-25-2006, 01:30 AM

I wouldn't mind looking at that while I "worked".

After all the boats get put away, do the elves start making toys ?

I wish my office had a view like that

That's a great view. I zoomed in on your truck. Whats up with your front license plate?

Schmaltz~Herring · 10-27-2006, 06:07 PM

Do you use a fork??Wiggins?
I'd like to see the same view in February!

Jon G · 10-29-2006, 12:23 AM

Andy, that does look awesome! But also looks VERY cold!

What do you and your family do during this time of year? Indoor repairs and stuff, I assume.

Looks like the kind of beautiful night to watch the sun go down and snuggle up by the fire with Lisa.

It actually got down to 16-17 degrees last night, here in Atlanta.

Hope all is well,
Danny

Danny,

We havea largeheated storage building, an unheated storage building and a6000 sg ft.heated repair
igging shop that is large enough to drive our 70 ton Marine Travelift into. During the winter we work in the repair shop(2 re-powers going on now)and work on customers boats in the heated building as well. Along with the Internet parts biz, we stay plenty busy year round.

We are alsofortunate enough thatour Islandferry company built a new winter time ferry 2 years agothat literally can go through anything. It is much easier to come and go off the islandin the winter ice months now compared to what they used to offer. We can haul semi's, trailered boats, fuel tankers ect year round. Until they did that we had to stock up on fuel and get any of ourboats forshowsoff the island before winter came because the ferry used in the winter would hold 8 cars and my dualy crew cab was the biggest it could handle. You can check them out herewww.wisferry.com

Last night was the first night allof ourkids stayed overnight at friends house's. Lisa and I were alone for the first time in probably 10 years. What did we do???? Drank a couple of beers, shared a pizza,watched the Dog Whisperer and went to bed. How exciting!!! [img]../images/emoticons/biggrin.gif[/img][img]../images/emoticons/biggrin.gif[/img]
