Today is that sad day when I take the boat in to be put in storage for the winter. Until next summer Magic Waves!

Morning sauna time. 🔥

It took all four of us about an hour to get the canopy in the boat cover. The wind was borderline and three different times we got it on just to have it blown off. After finally getting it on we gave the boat the best cleaning ever and it is looking really good!

Unwelcome surprise to have water ponding around the well head at the cabin. This isn’t good. 😬

Muddy yard with water pooling around a well head cap, soggy saturated soil, and a black drainage hose running across the ground near trees.

There is a fox that has been mostly living at our cabin property for a couple of years now. This year she had pups and they sure are cute to see scamper around.
