Sailing, sailing

Sep 23, 2007 20:34

After (I think) three years, we finally got the sailboat out today. Unfortunately, we forgot the kayak paddle so Mur couldn't join me out on the water, which was a big disappointment. But the Pink Tornado got a ride, at least ( Read more... )

Is this a Sunfish kind of boat?

cthulhim September 24 2007, 01:29:38 UTC

Yup, 30 year old Sunfish. It's got an orange and red hull, which is kinda nifty.

I've been out on one of those, they are cool!

Yay! I'm so thrilled to hear you got it out n' stuff!

cthulhim September 27 2007, 01:02:15 UTC

About time, eh? :)

you'll just have to do it again a LOT sooner

So, you are saying that there is something nasty under that pretty, pretty water? The lake looked so... innocent... when I saw it last.

(Maybe something... infectious?!?)

When I posted this, I thought it was infectious. Further research has shown that
* There was a sewage spill in January
* But the big problem is the decades-long build-up of industrial PCBs

But I feel fine, so whatever. I'll just be sure not to take quite such a long walk off a short pier next time.

To put it another way, when I got out of the lake and dripped my way into the car, I said "Damn, what's that smell?" And Mur said, "Er, you."

A shower followed soon after.
