Tucked away...


Not on a schedule, since we have the boat out of the water.  The next norther is supposed to blow in overnight, with tomorrow being cold (relative), windy, and rainy.  A couple people have said to me, "It's a boat - what do you care if it gets rained on?"

When putting it in storage for a while, I'd like it to be clean.  We ran into rain coming back from San Antonio last month with the motorhome, and it had to go in there grubby.  I spent most of yesterday afternoon getting that boat clean - I'd like it to stay that way for a while.

The storage unit is big enough to hold the motorhome and the boat, as long we get the boat in there at a diagonal.  So, there is a bit of "a dance" - the motorhome comes out, the boat goes in, shut-down stuff done with the boat, put the boat at the proper angle, put the motorhome back in.  Snug, but it all fits.

Motorhome out...


Boat in...


I disconnected the battery, put the helm cover and the full boat cover on...


We pushed the boat to the back of the storage unit, and swung it so it is as close to sideways as it will go, then put the coach back in....


A look at the front of the coach and the boat...


Now, we really have no schedule.  It was a pleasant weather day today, in the low 70s while we shopped and had lunch in the city.  That will change as the front comes in overnight... the high tomorrow will be 60º, but that will be early in the morning; the temperature will be dropping throughout the day, with an overnight low tomorrow night in the upper 30s.  Yep, that is cold for here.  After a couple chilly days, back into the 70s for the weekend.

Good boating weather for the weekend?  Yeah...

;-)
