Ok, here's my shot about the weather.... We had snow in Seattle last week and then Friday the weather started to turn (high pressure moved in).... Friday night I jumped in the motorhome and headed for Crystal Mountain (http://www.skicrystal.com/) and got up Saturday morning to 15 degrees, newer snow and blue skies (not a cloud seen) I skied my bu** off for 5 hours and jumped in the rig and rambled down the mountain....
I swung by the house grabbed a shower, the wife, dog and headed down to the boat.... We were out of shed, heading down the Hylebos waterway by 4:30 and were on the dock in Gig Harbor (http://www.gigharbor.com/) by 6:30pm with friends on our boats BBQ'ng... Yesterday it was 70 degrees !!!! And beautiful.... Let boating begin !!!
Cheers, Mark
PS: I filled the tanks yesterday and paid $1.91 (including tax) for diesel - Woooooo Hooooooo !!!

That's what I'm talking about Mark!!!
Ski to Sea.
We had frost on the Docks in Friday harbor, when I awoke there Sat AM. We then ran up to Bedwell Harbour, where the blue skies heated up to the lower 60's. Perfect weekend.
Can't wait to get back out in a couple of weeks.

The boating gods smiled on west Michigan. Instead of 6-12" of snow, we got sunshine and the promise of a warm up. It's looking pretty good for a mid April launch in Grand Haven.

Are you going to be around New Buffalo this weekend?
I am still tring to get over to Service 1 to start some clean-up.
Stupid weather has had me sitting over here in Chicago, knowing I am now about 3 weekends behind.
If you are I'll buy you a beer.
Still thinking about a slip for the season over there vs. Hammond.
