Where and when will we have the third flat tire? This morning Grandma was driving to town when a nail intruded into her left rear tire. AAA was more helpful to her than to me, and she had the flat repaired at Skip Cahill's in Bath. How odd the coincidence.
I pulled the mooring this morning with no trouble. Although the chain had wrapped around the anchor shank a bit, the 3/8" chain came loose easily. Lacking the extra 20 feet of 1/4" chain turned out to be a good thing, as the mooring weathered 40 MPH winds without moving. Good placement by Em and Gregg.
A gloomy weekend is on the way, but the leaves are turning at last and we might enjoy glory next week.
Another flat?! Ridiculous. What would we all do without AAA?
ReplyDeleteIt seems it was just yesterday when we put in AUTUMN's new mooring. How can it be it is already time to pull it?
One more day of faux-sailing, pending another light air day, tomorrow, and then we are done with the season. Fall comes fast.
AAA was of no use to me -- "Oh, we don't cover boat trailers." Greaaat.
ReplyDeleteReally7? I distinctly remember that they did while in college. Everyone's cutting back...
