Been towed once and towed other people three times. I was happy to do it and will be very appreciative when it's my turn again. My one tow was with a brand new boat with a defective belt. You never know when it will happen.

and all this time I thought I was flying under the radar...

Hey, thank you and the Tiki Hut guys for donating tickets to the Tyler's Heart Foundation!! I am playing their charity concert next weekend, and just saw that you guys are one of the raffle prizes!

Don't thank me, thank Hulk... he's the man!! I did donate to the Weirs Beach fireworks fund though, so THAT you can thank me for! [emoji38]

Not an actual sunset, but the colors were pretty just the same!

Boating instruction appointments have taken me to many areas of the lake...many in my own " backyard " so to speak, and lots in places I don't get to see too often. I was excited when I got a request to go up to Lee's Mill , a place I've never been to. What a quiet, peaceful area of the lake it is! Pulling away from the dock, we watched a huge eagle catching fish , and I felt like we were on a small pond instead of the largest lake in NH!
The picture is the spillway from Lee's Pond , which on the map appears to be the northern most part of the lake. Have any of you explored this area? It's beautiful!

We went up to Lees Mills a few years ago to see the steamboats. We had the feeling that we weren't on Winni too. The steamboat meet is scheduled for 9/6-15 with parades on 9/8 and 9/14. Had to look it up as we may go again.

We're in Hanson Cove. At first, I thought it might be uncool to be so far from "the main lake," but gosh do I love the extra boating days (no need to avoid weekends, much more sheltered from the wind, etc.) and calmness. It's a much different lake up here, for sure.

Beware of the rocks, though!

I’m be been all the way to Green’s Basin just once so far. Very peaceful going by Lee’s Mills. The Bizer chart is a must!

Sorry . . . I’ve been . . . .

There's an "edit" button for this kind of fix.

Oh thank you. I use just the app on the phone. I didn’t notice it but I’ll look.

Just because you have 7 jobs it doesn’t . . . . Never mind![emoji16]

I don't think the job count is quite that high! [emoji6]

A house and a camp is better plan than one big house.
Multiple sources of income are the best plan in today's volatile economy. Diversification is smart planning.

Not only that, but the stress factor is greatly reduced with the things I'm doing out here. Working for car dealership service departments, I've been overloaded with stress for many years. Tiki boats are actually fun for me . Boating instruction is rewarding when I see the smiles of people when they realize that docking a boat doesn't have to be a 3 person " all hands on deck" clown show. Except for the lady who accidentally gunned the throttle with her boat pointing at her neighbor's dock , then froze like a deer in the headlights ( I had to climb over her to bring the boat under control), that's been pretty stress free as well!

Sunrise over Welch
 

I've been slacking on the views lately so here's one from this morning!

Don't you hate it when someone photo bombs a beautiful sunrise picture you're trying to take? Neighbor sent this to me! [emoji16]

Photoi bomb?
 

Not sure what a photo bomb is, but a picture with a boat in it always gets at least 10 extra credit points.

a photobomb is when a picture is spoiled when something unwanted gets in the way...in this case it was me heading to work in my boat! :-)

Kiind of like that pesky little dock that got in the way a few years ago. :laugh::laugh::laugh:

yes.... the urban decay....I remember the controversy well!

It's still funny to this day.

every now and then I go back and reread this thread....lot of funny stuff in here!

...and some pretty views. Last night didn't disappoint!
