Avoided the crowds

And spent the day with my brother working on our jon boat trailer. With the oars almost ready for the varnish, we started work on the trailer. Pulled off the old wheels checked the bearings, de-seized the winch and got the tongue workin' nice. Some new wires, tires, fancy LED lights and new trailer bunks with fresh outdoor carpeting topped it all off. Worked till just after dark which was great for makin' sure everything worked as it should. All in all it was a great way for me to spend opening day, even without so much as a line being wet. Glad to hear that lots of folks on here got out and had some action. Should be a little less windy today, so who knows what will happen!

Pays to do the pre trip stuff. Silly me thinking I could just pull the motor out of the shed and it work when I get to RV, not !

Do you have any before after pics of the boat? It'd be cool to see.

All I've done so far this year is get stuff ready as well. I'm waiting for a few days of nice warm weather. Hopefully, I haven't forgotten anything important.
