So yesterday Doug (from work) and I began the hours and hours of time it takes to get all that stuff ready for a one day trip.
So the first thing we realized was all 3 boats needed new batteries, so off to N.C. Yamaha for $300.00 worth of batteries.
Then a defect was found in the steering cable of everyone's "favorite" boat and a mail order replacement wast quickly ordered (a mere $150.00)
Hopefully it will get here in time to install.
The final straw was figuring out that the problem we've been having with one of the red boats will require the engine to be rebuilt ($$$ undetermined at this blogging)
We're not sure if we (Doug) can accomplish that before the trip, which led us to the obvious male conclusion.
Stay tuned to see if the cost of divorce also needs to be calculated into the price of this trip............
Haha. . . I will help convince mom the new boats will be fine without ice chest holders :) Thanks for all your work to make our 1 day trip the bomb!! Our family vacations always ROCK!!
ReplyDeleteAww...what's money anyway...you can't take it with you. we just all need to die before we run out. Isn't that what we are all worried about anyway- not having enough to take care of us until we are dead and fearing we won't spend enough before we die and will wish we would have spent it on that thing we skipped because we were afraid we wouldn't have enough until we die. Very confusing- money. I just don't get it. Love, Gail
