We see some sun!!

Today all of our family arrived and with 5 kids running all over it became a wild scene all at once....  

The sun was cooperating and we managed to wash the pontoon boat and its cover with the power washer...  That's kind of a do a little every day job...  So we hung it up in favor of the jet ski in the garage..

We connected the vacuum oil extractor to the tube that goes down the dip stick and sucked all 5 quarts of oil out of its engine...  I had driven over to the local Menards lumber yard which is our closest big box store....  And they had a small automotive section complete with oil...   That saved a drive down to Wal Mart....  Our traffic becomes quite busy on these holiday weekends...

Eventually we got the ski in the water with Ben and grandson Caden riding in the really cool water...  They reported that the water temperature was 54....  Burr..!!

Tonight was pizza night with three store bought pies arriving from the favorite local shop..... Imo's a joint from St Louis....

So the weekend is in full swing as I type this late at night...
