This is just a normal rainy day....some say an appetizer for the hurricane but not anything related to Irene. We spent the day prepping and relaxing before the main event. We went to West Marine yesterday to get extra dock lines. I went again to West Marine and the hardware store to get the makings of fenderboards. I made one and the rains came. I'll finish making the other one later. Donna, a friend from a neighboring marina come over. She had her boat hauled ( taken out of the water and put on land ) for the storm, They are in a much more exposed marina. We talked about the storm for a while and about the upcoming get together.
Marilyn is planning on reading for the rest of the afternoon and I'll finish that other fenderboard if the rain slows down!
