The Cheeseheads claim the Super Bowl title with a win over the tough Pittsburgh Steelers. When the Steelers failed to convert on their final play, the sound of beer caps popping off bottles throughout the Packer Nation was deafening! The Lombardi Trophy is going back to Green Bay! Way to go Pack!
The "Thrower Guy" Aaron Rodgers, as Pam calls him, holding the trophy while being interviewed by Terry Bradshaw. Once again the party was on Front Page with plenty of snacks to go around. Thanks again Gene and Kathy for the hospitality!
Just part of the aftermath of the Packers victory celebration. Thanks Marv & Carol for being the recycle bin!
Earlier in the week Pam & I left the dock and anchored near Shell Point with the intention of staying out until Friday. We did manage to stay overnight but upon morning inspections I found sea water in the bottom of the generator sound box. Not Good! We were able to enjoy part of the day before we came back in.
The Coast Guard was quite active near our anchorage pulling boats over that were going a bit too fast through the No Wake area. Of course once stopped they received a full compliance inspection.
Once back at the dock we discovered a leak in a stainless steel exhaust pipe which is of course located in the most inaccessible place on the generator! Speaking of inaccessible places check out the picture below. I'm wedged in between the port engine and fuel tank trying to change a sacrificial zinc.
Can you see my leg? I have to disconnect the engine exhaust pipe so I can get back out. Where's the knucklehead that designed this?
I guess I shouldn't complain too much about boat problems. We could of been back home in Illinois shovelling snow.
Partially shovelled snow in our driveway at home. 15 inches with high winds followed by below zero temps. I think I'll work on the generator!
Of course we have to include a picture of Oscar. This one shows his response when asked how big the margin of victory will be for the Packers in the Super Bowl.
