I miss the old shuttle returns over South Florida/Gulf of Mexico and sonic booms they produced.
 
We were parked off A1A on the Banana River looking almost directly North. Roughly 14mi from LC39A I think.
Oh Ok. I saw your location in GA and thought you could somehow see it from somewhere up there.
 
I like that adjustable wrench, where did you get that?


Couldn't find anything like it locally, but it's perfect for the scupper, and the nut on kitchen sink strainers.
 
A set of keys I left in the boat and have been looking for since last September.

i have been thinking about replacing the Ford key soon ($300 at the dealer, $125 at a local locksmith) so I was happy to find this lost treasure.
 
It is boating season finally! Last picture is a log that was floating just under the surface in Anchor Bay, Lake St. Clair.

Wonderful NJ Turnpike Toll roads - strike again :banghead:. Had another blow out, thank God I was towing or anything, but got stuck right past the toll plaza in a really tricky spot... It really sucks a$$ as we were on the way to a Raritan Bay striper fishing trip with a daughter.
Anyway, I decided to make the best of the situation and show her how to handle road emergencies.
Which was fine and I stayed very cool... until the AAA dude showed up (he was in an unmarked vehicle, so that was weird). Well, he couldn't jack my truck to pull the blown tire... only had a small rusted "harborfreight" floor jack. What a waste of time.
Had to do it the old fashioned way. Not sure I will be renewing our AAA subscription.

We didn't let it stop us though! We were late and didn't catch a single striper but we had a great time!

At the end of the day I even managed to back into my slip, lol, which is not completely trivial.
