A different view of a bowling alley most never see

 

Bone Stock!

 

just checking in. Work is taking over.


Anyone here ever done the houseboat on a lake thing? As a New Englander, despite lots of lake time, houseboats were never a thing. Even with decades of recration in Illinois and Michigan....never saw it. I was invited last weekend to Dale Hollow on the Kentucky/Tennessee border. It's like an alternate universe. Hundreds of them. They're floating mobile homes...much bigger and well equipped than luxury RV's. They store at the dock, then they depart, find a piece of shore, run themselves onto the beach (45,000 lb boats mind you, driven, in this case, by a small block Chevy) where they sit and party for a few days. Unwritten rule: you stay away from one another. It's all first come first served, but once an area is claimed...stay away.

 

I've never run a houseboat on to a beach but I did run a 24' onto a sandbar near a nuclear power station on the Connecticut River. Their security people were unamused by my seamanship.

 

Storm installed, do the closer tomorrow

 

Done, minus touch up paint, got rid of this frigging monster

Hah, that's right up my alley (pun intended?). All those motors, drives, and chains look all too familiar

 

Morning Mike

 

Ran into Mark out in the wild today while running errands. First order of business: stick his head in my window and shame me for how dusty my dash is.
