No good deed goes unpunished

 It's almost time to return north for the summer and there's tons to do. Here's a small sampling:

Richard volunteered to tow the MacGregor to the launch ramp since we had to "borrow" the battery to make the jeep run, which we needed to tow the boat back to the yard.  I got to steer so it wouldn't wander behind the dinghy too much and Gerry drove the jeep over to the ramp. As for the title of this entry: Richard's dinghy broke down on his return trip and he had to row most of the way back - took hours.

oops, apparently the winch is not supposed  to fly off.

Time out to admire the bougainvillea

Folding up Ramblynn's main sail.

Main and jib in 1 bag too heavy to carry.














This beauty looks quite dead all winter then suddenly blossoms.

Trees had to be cut back and Richard put on a new roof.





Now it's time to return to Ontario where I hear it is STILL raining and STILL chilly.
