I'm such a Yankee.

I'm such a Yankee.

Accomplished 3 out of 8 winches complete

Give me grease and sprockets with little pins to set in place and I am happy. I love puzzles. Ben n I hired a winch lady but it came out that she has never done our kind before and she is self taught. Ben and I think we had her just to give us the nerve to do it even though we might have done it faster than her "teaching" us. All-in-all it was good to have her and we would hire her again for projects we are unsure of. 

I also stripped the top of one hand rail - 3 more to go.  More sun tomorrow then rain. I'm getting as much done outside and in rainy days we will go inside.

The most amazing thing today was the boatyard people here are so loving. Today Ken on a boat "Sparrow" made us all crab cake sandwiches from crabs he caught in the river!!! But first Bob our rigger guy walked by and asked if we wanted shrimp! He caught the shrimp from his boat up stream ohhhh 50 pounds or so I think he said. I was amazed at the food right here in the river! How do they do it? I'm such a Yankee. We only know fresh water fish and that I don't even do but once every 10 years.

Tonight not sure what we will learn, more storm tactics? Weather online course? SSB equipment? So little time. Or just knit.
Peace Pam
