Emil decided it was time for a shelter over our bedroom deck,and so we are now the proud owners of a canopy. I must say that it does give you the cozy feeling of camping! It alredy has kept the dew off the chairs, which is the main reason for the unit. We can have our morning coffee dewless now...and still in the sunshine more or less. It comes with mosquito nets for the sides which will come in handy later on when the West Nilers are out.
The water was up much higher, then receded ,but is still over the top of the beach. It could come way up this next week, as hotter temps are predicted.
Emil and Silky cleaning up the new rig that is bittersweet for Emil. Unfortunately for our neighbour Bill, he won't be likely to survive the cancer that is making him weaker everyday. He was happy tho, to know that Emil was the buyer of his boat. Originally, it took months for Bill to find just the right boat, a few years ago, and now by fate, he only had a couple of summers out in it. So Emil will have a boat which he always wanted, but at the same time he is losing one of his most dear friends. I hope now that Emil gets a little more use out of it than Bill did. Emil is looking forward to the grandkids coming up this summer...Tubing 101!
Here it is! Look familiar Dick and Nadine? ( I heard you were the proud new owners of a similar colured one! Congrats!)
The Captain...not exactly on the lake, but it will soon be launched once it is all cleaned and ready to go.

Good thing that the boat is on the trailer seeing what the captain has in his hand? :)
Emil will have to take us for a ride when we are out in August.
