Gangway

We got the gangway back in the water today.  Big thanks to the Simon's for helping with it!  I've spent the last couple evenings getting the boat ready as well.  The plan is to run up there after work tomorrow early enough that we can run around the lake before we have to put it away.

Last year we didn't get the boat in the water until June 1st!

More Retaining Wall Work

We had some great weather for working outside at the cabin today.  The girls helped me take apart the last of the old retaining wall and dig it all our for the new one.  When we finish the new wall, we will build a tool shed on the property line just above the retaining wall.  We should have room for an 8x8 or maybe 8x10.  We'll have to wait and see when the wall is done.

Washer and Dryer

Today was an amazing day!  We packed up the washer and dryer in the trailer and headed to the lake to get them installed.  It was cold when we got there, but we turned on the fireplace and the girls sat under covers on the new couch while Kelly and I brought the washer and dryer in to get them installed.   It was quite a challenge getting them down the steps and through the front door, but we managed.  One of the hardest parts was getting the dryer up on top of the washer since we had to do it with the washer pretty close to in place.  The only flaw in the whole plan was the dryer had the wrong plug.  Other than that, everything is hooked up and functioning properly.

The plan was to get the dock pushed out as well, but it is still sitting just a little too hard on the bottom.  So we heady up there later in the week or next weekend to see if we can get it pushed out after the water has come up a little more.
