I'm still having a hard time remembering to put 2013.  I will get used to it though.

Things have been rather calm around here since returning from Cincinnati at Christmas time.  We have had some volatile weather, however.  First it will be in the upper 60s and lower 70s and then just a day later, we are having freezing temperatures and lots  and lots of rain and even some sleet.  We have avoided the snow (that nasty 4 letter word) so far.  When the weather was warm, John was outside scrubbing the boat.  Suddenly, the brush and handle fell in the water.  The handle was supposed to be one that floats, but it sank like a weighted down dead mobster.  It has since been replaced.

Because of all of the rain we have gotten, the ramp to the dock is just about flat.  It could stay like that as far as I'm concerned.  It certainly makes toting things up and down the dock a lot easier.  We drove over to Pickwick Dam to see how much water they are pushing through the dam.  I took a video and will attempt to put it on the blog.  Our Internet service is pretty slow here, so it may not work.  I will give it a go.
