As I walk up to my truck and trailer so I can pull my boat out of the river to head home I see this. I left them a kind message about blocking me in, the head back to the docks to find anyone sober enough to help me slid my trailer about a foot over. What can't be seen in the picture is another trailer to the left and a tree keeping me from backing up.

That sucks! I gotta say, if I was parked straight and they violated the parking lines.... I would have tried my best to jockey it out but would not have felt bad to drag my trailer across their front end. Most likely I would have disconnected the trailer and pushed it out by hand all the while cursing the idiot who would park like that!!

Oh yeah.... had to be a chick to park like that!

Helping @Bruce prepare the boat for Bimini crossing 2017. I have been requested to climb in tiny spaces to install rod holders, run drainage, and upgrade the sound system. It is fun being able to assist with maintainence. We love this boat... sometimes we think, should we buy something newer... then we ponder all the work we have put into to making her comfy for our family. Here's to a safe crossing this year!
 
This was from Tuesday. Not sure what was up, but there was an infestation of sharks in the Gulf of Mexico in Destin. We anchored up and they continuously swam around us the whole time we were there. Usually, the sharks will move through here and head back to deeper water, but not Tuesday. And I did get in to snorkel, but was a little paranoid, so I didn't stay in long.

@ToddW850 , what kind of sharks are they? If that large mass behind you is a shark you must really love snorkeling.
 
Left the house with blue skies...

Drove an hour to the lake and got to spend maybe 30 minutes in the water before a nasty summer storm decided to build right on top of us killing the day short. It never let up. Boat had like 5 gallons in the bilge I think and more in the ski locker lol

@Ronnie the shark in the photo I believe is a bull shark. They don't play. But most of the others we saw were Spinner Sharks. Saw 3 different ones breaching the water and spinning. And I think the large mass you see behind me is my boat haha. I didn't stay in the water long. Was too paranoid.
 
I may have been on my cell phone when I first saw the pic but see what I think is a stern light I the water with the black parts of the boat pump, initially it looked to me like a shark swimming towards you.
I salute you buddy, I would not have gotten in the water at all.
They all look Dangerous to me.
 
I'm no shark professional but with that tall tail fin, light colored underbelly and pointed nose I'm leaning towards a spinner shark.

We have quite a few of those near my platform. Pretty kewl watching those guys breach.

Yeah Spinner Sharks are a sight to see when they breach. We have a lot outside the East Pass. But Spinner Sharks have black tips and I didn't see any black tips on this one, that's why I was leaning toward a Bull Shark.
 
Today at the Blue Angels in Pensacola Beach.

There's a bar on our lake that has helecopter rides. First time doing it today. It's a 5-6 minute ride, and very cool. Great view of our lakes from up in the air.
