Lets get the Month Started off.

Here is our favorite local Hagg Lake. Just opened March 1st. Still filling, will be Full Pool soon.

Had a huge wind storm a few weeks back, broke the anchor cables on the dock. Luckily we have a larger one on the other side. I prefer this one as the dock in on my Left so the boat launches and I can turn it around easier.

What's it take about 2000 gallons to fill that sucker?

Water temp was 60 and air was mid 70s. I only had my fiancés son with me so we just road around
Was nice to get in the lake though!

Of course as I left the lake I started seeing weather alerts for the polar vortex visiting the area! Fortunately wasn't as bad! So from now on I don't have to go pick up the boat from storage, just flip switch on lift!

Bottom of it is the back. Sits three across and one on the tail that is best to ride on the knees. I've had a few of the 3 person ones, and this one is just slightly larger. Kids love it and Costco's price is impossible to beat. This one came with both a 12v pump and HD tow rope. But like anything at Costco they disappear quickly!

Well did some work to the boat this weekend, put a tower, racks and got speakers for the tower (yet to be put on). Got a sub and amp on the way, and even got out on the water today, braved the FREEZING water temp to get the first wakeboard session of the season in. Started off the dock so I didn't have to feel the FREEZING water till I fell haha. Going to be a good summer on the lake.

We had that one last year and it popped by the end of the season. I took it back and they refunded my $ no questions asked. Gotta love Costco. On another not that tube is HUGE. It takes up a ton of space and it take a lot of time to fill. I was sick of it by the end of the season so I am looking for a smaller one this year.

The dreaded tube... I hate bringing it unless we have a tie up or beach somewhere that I can leave the thing. Or there's always the "oops, sorry guys but I forgot to put in the tube" day trips. :rolleyes:

I wish this shot below was from the beach or at least waterfront, but I'll settle for the backyard for now.

Finally finished fixing my deck this weekend. The people who lived there before me had it put in by "professionals" 3 years old and 75% of the boards were curling up because the crowns were faced the wrong way. So I started it last summer and finished it Saturday. Now I just have to build flower boxes and hand rails and it will be 100% done.

Stripped the old stuff off.

Crazy how the winters have been just in 2 years. For Spring Break in 2012 we spent the week at our condo on Norris and took the boat. Could not keep the kids out of the water and i even went boarding. Now new boat is sitting in the warehouse waiting for the below freezing days to stop.

All I did was open my boat cover, install a new bilge pump and a digital bilge pump switch, cleaned up the interior a little, and then put the cover right back on.

Yep, March was a bust. (aside from snowboarding every weekend and spending a week in Sun Valley.)

But since the snow has been my passion this month, I'll share these:
