    This. This is my world. All summer long.


    But for me backing in to the parking spot at home is like threading a needle every time. Not gonna let anyone else attempt that. Much more fun doing it in the dark after eleventeen beers on the water.
    So when is this "old enough to know better" supposed to kick in?

    One of the big factors of moving to Carlton is we are 20 minutes from our favorite lake, 20 minutes from the River. It also Helps I taught Claudia how to back the truck and boat up, then she got brave and wanted to drive them home. Sold, Now I can really party all day and she drives us home since she doesn't drink LOL.

    Truck and boat sits in the street still because she won't back it onto the RV pad or into the garage. I am ok with that.
    And to think on Saturday I got up at 5:30am, was rolling to Mt Hood by 6:30. had about an hour and a half drive (okay, less cause I drive fast) to the mountain, snowboarded until about 11:30am, drove home 90 minutes (grabbing lunch on the way), then hitched up the boat and was leaving the house in under an hour to the launch (20 min drive).

    then driving the boat 20 minutes to/from the ride spot + surfing/surf driving. No wonder I was tired after Saturday...
