Default Windy!

We were going to go out to Welch today to start our close up but doesn’t look like that is going to happen. Suppose to be perfectly calm tomorrow morning and rain holding off till late in the afternoon so tomorrow it is!!…

Our dock weather system is showing average wind 26 max 37. Not going to Welch today either. Yes tomorrow looks good.

Though a tad choppy in Moultonborough Bay, we were going with the wind, so it was an uneventful ride. Boatie Two is safely at port!

If I had a different job, I'd totally have held out, but since school just started— and my seniors need all the help I can give for their college applications—I'm relegated to only weekends...which is a bit of a risk this late in the season.

Thanks, friend!

It's a pretty great career, and I'm very lucky to be where I am and to connect with my students like I do. Lots of awesome stories from having 2000+ students over the last twenty years!

We went out dinner time Friday night, relatively calm. Looked like the Tiki Bar was all lit up. Final trip around 10:00 pm for late arrivals. Being on the south side of Welch, not much wind, no waves, but branches and acorns pelted the roof all night. Cancelled a planned gathering for Saturday as nobody wanted to tackle the wind, waves, but a great Canadian Thanksgiving for those who arrived on Friday and stayed over. Closed up Sunday am, also a beautiful day until noonish. See you in the spring.
