Mishaps and Memories

Mar. 18, 2008 - Easter plans come to a crashing halt

Easter is being cancelled!

 

We've a 4 day weekend, and then i've got the rest of the following week off.... and typical.... the weather forecast is a shocker!

 

Not only is it forecast to be blowings its nuts off, but they are also forecasting snow....

 

Friday, as an example is 35mph, max temp 6deg, min -2deg, occ snow showers....

 

Hardly ideal sailing weather... looks like i'll be staying home!

 

I may need to go down and check out how the tender is fairing in the davits.... but it'll just be a day trip...

 

sigh.....

 

Apparently Easter isn't this early again for 142 years.... so not likely to be a problem for me unless there are some pretty dramatic advances in medical science in the next 3 or 4 decades!
