the wind in the wires...

Fortunately, no wave broke over the railing.

We have had a lot of wind and rain and for the past two days, we have been holed up on the boat.  No real problem, except that the wind is blowing upstream, blowing the water back up the river and making for rising water and some flooding.  This makes things interesting as we are at a fixed, not floating, dock.  As the water rises, the dock gets further from the surface of the deck, making for an interesting disembark/embark procedure.  Suffice it to say, if someone around here has a video camera, you might see me on TV.  No one went in the drink, though.

We are scheduled to have the transmission shifter cable replaced tomorrow.  Transmission was checked out and declared good.  After that we will be moving the boat to our marina for further cleaning and repairs. 


Good friends coming into town tomorrow, looking forward to seeing them.  Weather is supposed to break tomorrow, and I'm so looking forward to some sunshine.
