We somehow managed to pull off the vacation to the BVI unscathed, but a week after I got it. Then Mary, and Kyle popped today. Luckily I have felt fine. I had minor cold symptoms before I popped. The only way I knew was I lost taste and smell. Couldn’t taste my lunch!

the all important 's'
 

What's the plural of Spinach?
If I want more than on e whisky, is it 'ies' or 'y's'? Never mind. Just make it a double.

I would go with the ies.....y's would make it possessive, and you never want to be possessed by your alcohol of choice![emoji57]

Never lost my sense of smell or taste. I could have eaten a horse when I was running a fever…if someone would have brought me one.

Boats are registered, island stickers and parking passes are ordered, and it's not even March...am I forgetting anything?? [emoji16]

Propane delivery requested?? [emoji16]

Ha.... don't get me started with THAT nonsense!

Steve, just a few reminders for the new boating season to keep you out of trouble on the C-Nile:

1) You need to stay below 45 mph
2) Please stay away from shore when you are pulling wake surfers
3) Stop blasting the hip-hop tunes from your tower speakers

If you follow those rules we won't shame you for not drinking IPA's at sunset. :)

You can find me in the club...bottle full of bub... sorry, I was having Super Bowl halftime show flashbacks.... just my .50 Cent's worth...
45 mph??? No problem.
Wake surfers?? I think I've pulled my grandson in a tube a couple of times, but that's it.
Hip Hop from tower speakers? All my speakers are in the cabin, so the only one who'll suffer damage from that is me. Any sound escaping would probably be drowned out from the extremely loud " through the hull " exhaust pipes, so we're good with that as well!
The only issue I'm gonna have is lugging the 100 pounder propane tanks after my December open heart surgery. I'd better step up my " cardiac rehab " routines....fast!! :-)

End the DIY
 

It may be time to end the DIY, at least for the propane. There are plenty of companies that will do this for you, and it's a good way to break them in to picking up a little more of the work each season.

We have a big tank and I've been trying to get a delivery for 2 years....

We're in...let the lugging of crap commence!

Let the good times role. What C-Nile adventures do you have in store for us this year?

Who knows....stay tuned...time will tell!

A little pre-launch sighting. Pure performance!

A real man would swim out the first time of the year ... :laugh:

Glad to see it on the water, reminds me I'll be out there some time soon.

They wanted me to leave it there as a rolling billboard, but I kinda had to get out to the island...

I don't know what would have been more of a shock...jumping in the cold water, or paying to fill the fuel tanks...Jesus!

Charlotte is always happy being back out on the lake. She might not look it, but she is!https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...4296e3c124.jpg

Love seeing the pup enjoying the time on the water!

It's funny...I walk her unleashed to the docks and say " get on the boat"..she knows which one to get on!

Sent from my Pixel 6 using Tapatalk

She says to her doggy friends "I expect my stupid human to get on the wrong boat but he gets on the right one every time. Good thing I leave a scent for him."

There are some boats I'd rather get on ( especially if the Riva is there), but I usually pick the right one!

Good to be " home"...https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...892a6463e8.jpg

If you could remove the boat the picture would be perfect.:laugh::laugh::laugh:

I will never look at your beautiful pictures without thinking of that.

Neither will I...why I made it my signature! Release the croppers!!!

Sent from my Pixel 6 using Tapatalk

I disagree, without the boat the picture just looks like something is missing.

Ha... that's what I've been saying all along!

Sent from my Pixel 6 using Tapatalk

Steve, he missed the original so he thinks I am serious.

I think he's just showing a sense of humor...I know, you don't see much of that in here so it's kinda hard to recognize! Like the guy who takes the Photoshop requests, and does them in a way that satisfies the request, but in a bizarre way. Whatever the intention, it made me laugh!!

Sent from my Pixel 6 using Tapatalk

It made me laugh too.

Audience
 

It's all in the audience. Some think a picture of a boat is missing something if it doesn't include a girl in a bikini. Some think the bikini should be missing. Steve's pictures are just fine, especially when the animals aren't missing.
