Please send photos of activities on the beach!
Does anyone read this? This is a plea for neighbors to send me photos of activities occurring on our beach. I make this request every year but get few if any responses. Please send me the photo of YOUR activity or event. Many may not realize that we have had pigs roasted and seafood bakes on this beach. We have no pictures to show. Flying boats and float planes have stopped in for a visit! We had a tree fall on a power line starting a fire last week. Did I get a photo? No! I want pictures! Please send me your pictures!
Anchors Away= Better Sleep at Night
Spring is the time of the year that neighbors are thinking about getting out on the water. Shortly after that thought pops into our head we start wondering how reliable our mooring buoys are, and will our boat float away in some back eddy if we don't repair or replace our anchoring system. Well, I've been going through this process for the last five years now and have finally decided that something needed to be done with my anchor. After all I know first hand of the condition of most of our anchors since I actually go down and look at them! Because of this I am acutely aware that my anchor is the worst one on the Beach! That is going to change this year because I am about to sink a new
anchor weight along with chain. I will soon be sleeping better at night knowing that my boat and dock will not be the one that goes floating off in some back eddy this year. Nope, not this beach bum!
