Life in the fast lane... giving Ruby a "horsey ride" while enjoying a glass of champagne on the stern deck. No, I don't know why a vicious pit bull likes a horsey ride. It kinda goes against their reputation.

Sorry about the waste basket in the pic.

Living aboard updates...

Meanwhile, life aboard is good, pretty much. I'm trying to figure out why the fresh water pump is sucking air. We've managed to trace the water line back to where it disappears under the forward cabin to where, presumably, the fresh water tank lives. It's my guess that there's a leak in the connection to the tank. How to get to it, I have no idea. It might be time for a Saws-all.

I bought an HD TV antenna for our TV. I get 8 channels. Two women's channels, three Spanish channels, two that don't quite come in, and Fox. ~sigh~. It's just as well. We have plenty of boat projects.

This morning, low tide was -.8 at 6 AM, and we were aground at our dock. Not bad, but it was a three foot reach from the dock to the boat to lift Ruby off for her morning walk. It was also 35* outside, and a chilly 53* in the boat.
