Spring Fever
Richard -Sunny 60 Wind – Less than 1
20 February 2010 | Telico Lake, TN
Finally, a break in the weather and a sunny day in the upper 50’s lured us to Silver Lining to see how she faired the winter. It has been the coldest winter in over 100 years in East Tennessee with 15 straight days staying below freezing and sub-freezing temps nearly every night since early December.
We fired up the motor and cleaned the interior. Finally removed the Christmas lights and packed them away for next year. After spiffing up the boat, we cruised up the lake toward Jackson Bend and back to our slip. No wind to speak of but it felt really good to be on the water.
I will return to the boat tomorrow to remove the tiller for re-finishing and will re-drill the hole for the VHF antenna mount so it will be more secure.
A nice break from the winter doldrums.
