Has the boat survived this group read, or do we need a new one?

The boat is going into dry dock to be reinforced but it will be back and ready to go for the next one. Oh...they had to take the Veranda suite off to use the lumber...sorry Lynda! hee hee hee

I think we need to get extra paddles as they are getting quite worn.

>3 EadieB: How about a motor so our hands will be free to hold the cheesecake?

If we're remodeling the boat to put in my veranda, can we also add a pool? Like Vera, I need to start some swimming if we're going to continue to eat so much.

A motor would be a great idea as our hands are filled with forks and cake.

>5 Olivermagnus: What do you think all that water the boat is sitting in is for? Oh..okay we can add a pool. I better tell them to make it a lot bigger:) Eadie can be in charge of getting us the motor.

>7 Carol420: - I have a huge collection of campy shark movies so I never get in the water. I'm sure there's a fresh water shark somewhere in Lake Michigan just waiting for me to float out.

Still, appetizers snd drinks by the pool are always pleasant.

I'll see if the local penny-pincher newspaper has a motor for sale as I refuse to pay full price.

>8 Olivermagnus: Believe me Lynda...there are probably things in Lake Michigan that are worse than a fresh water shark...which Lynda just made up by the way.

>9 EadieB: Good idea to not pay full price, Eadie. Maybe we can get one donated if we beg enough. We can be bought be we're NOT cheap:)...well maybe just a little.

The boat has certainly come in for a lot of use this time. I think we should treat ourselves to a luxury new boat!

I just found one in the newspaper and already put a downpayment on it. Wait 'til you see it, you will love it!

>17 EadieB: That is a bit of alright! We may never know what is going on in a book again just so we can stay on the boat:)

The boat is loaded with library shelves so we will have plenty of good reads! If I bring all my books, we may sink!

Well, maybe we should get a bigger cabin cruiser that can hold 7,000 books because if the boat sinks, I'm not a very accomplished swimmer!

I could probably make it to the pool on the back as I think that would stay afloat! Saving the books is a good idea then we can float in the pool and read!

Can the new boat go riound in ever decreasing circles like we do?

>26 Andrew-theQM:
The cabin cruiser (classier than boat) has rubber rafts that we can use to discuss our books and they can go round and round. It also has a kitchen that we can use to make our desserts.
