[Rhodes22-list] Boat Pictures!!!!

[Bob Weber]

Jeff, You are lucky that your wife is "on board".  I am still working on 
that.  The lake is about an hour and half from my desk at work ( I work for 
a Budweiser distributor downtown ).  In the summer I can be slipping the 
lines about 6:30 pm which gives me about 2 hours of sunset sailing.  If the 
weather is good I will sail into the night.  If I leave by 10:00 I can be 
home before midnight.  I have wasted more time and felt worse the next day 
just watching a hockey game.  It is really nice having a boat in a slip just 
waiting to be unleashed, an hour an half seems to be the perfect distance.  
Far enough away to get "away" and close enough to go for a day trip.  Where 
are you planning on sailing "Sweet Medicine"?  There are now 2 R-22s on 
Carlyle.  3 would make a "Class" in my mind.  Bob Weber
