After 5 weekends of foolin' around, things are starting to shape up around the cottage. Late nights and early mornings - good thing I like this whole boating & relaxing thing ;-)

Half A Deck
With the blessing of great weather last weekend, we were able to get a jump on our deck construction - with half of the rough stuff done already. Yes, I know that I'm usually only dealing with half a deck, but this one is all good :-)
With any luck, we should be enjoying the finished product next weekend & get to try out the new chairs that A.G. & I picked up this morning.

New Roof Overhang
Today we got to finish up the roof overhang on the river side of our slips. Things are starting tio shape up nicely at the cottage these days, with the installation of the metal brakets (a couple of weeks back) & the main beam sections to be installed tomorrow for our HUGE deck we is constructing. Anchor Girl was nice enough (again) to bring the hard working crew fresh coffee & Tim Bits all the way from The Wick. A little later on, Debbie & Pat showed up, too. There was actually quite a few folks visiting their vessels up there today, with the beautiful sunshine we had. Met a few more of the locals & gave everyone fair warning about the Crazy Keswickians. From what we seen so far, this season is gonna be a HOOT!!!
Today we also cut out the opening that's on the land side of Boogaboo's slip. Here's a pic of that big deal. That's where the new deck is going to go to. Or more :-)

Roof Over Woubled Waters
Happy SPRING TIME!!! Well, the warm part is sure to come, soon. Promise. Anyone out there know how to make a 'fingers crossed' symbol?
The Boys headed off to The Cottage today to do some more improvements. This time it was a roof extension over 4 of our slips. As things was, the water side of the roof has some nasty rust lines on it, which, if our boats hang out too far, transfer themselves onto the swim platform, etc.. So, the 2' we added today will alleviate that concern.
Here we are, hard at it. Or, ah, Von Brauweiller appears to be hard at something else. Remind you of this years' FFF?
