It has gotten colder, freezing actually, and ABISHAG is still water bound. Not only are there a dozen boats ahead of her to get hauled, Eric the Shaman Mechanic still has t work on her engine which really has to be done in the water.
I will be heading over tomorrow(Monday)to get started on emptying everything out that needs to got into storage. I am always amazed at how much stuff get aboard despite my best efforts to keep stuff out, I know, for instance, that there are two boxes of wine aboard that Fred and I never even got to tap on the "cruise" to Newport. There are also the sails that have to be rolled and folded and stored. Unfortunately, in the rush before th Nor'Ester we had, they just got stuck down below with no rhyme or reason. And as it is supposed to rain again tomorrow, trying to get them rolled up and stuffed in their bags should be a hoot! I am sure that I will discover things I didn't even know were aboard and will wonder how they got there in the first place.
AH! THE JOY OF BOAT OWNERSHIP!
