Went boating yesterday and friday, it was a decent day once the morning chill was gone. Unfortunately this may be it for me. We took out our dock, pulled the bowrider and brought it to be winterized. Always a sad day. Won't say I cried, but it's always tough to say goodbye to another season, thought about all of the new memories made and how, I'll never see my daughters that age again on the boat.

We still have the pontoon, which has an outboard, but may be the last time anyway, need to go away for 2 weeks for work and will start opening winter place. By then may need to winterize the outboard. Still like leaving it out as long as possible, just in case we get the global warming heat of the previous years and can go out in mid nov.

Will say that the winter close up went very seamless this year....a little too seamless. I keep going over in my head if I forgot something, or if we were just a well oiled winterizing machine this year. Oh well, we'll see in April, but can't get rid of the pit in my stomach.
