Stop in for a cup of coffee

When I was stationed on 32nd st I had a buddy who liked to run there, lots of "eyeball liberty". We ran there a few times lol!

My mother and her boyfriend rented a big Winnebago, we were camped right on the beach. I hear this odd noise coming from the bay, only thing out there is a 30' cabin cruiser, and it's motorin' right along on the race course. I think the beer made me put the stopwatch on it and I timed it for a lap. The Race program had a chart in the back, lap times to mph. Look at the stopwatch, look at the chart :eek: SUNUVAGUN that tuna boat is averaging 90mph! Got out the binoculars and took a good look at it on his next pass. :eek: There was a large 36" stainless steel stack with a heat plume over it exiting the deck just in front of the transom. :realcrazy: That thing has a turbine in it! :steering:

That's movin' on the water. Gotta love the crazy machines!
 
Yesterday I got some firewood buzzed up and stacked, party lights strung, beer and ice bought for daughters birthday party. She started cooking yesterday, should be good food/fun, only thing is they are partying on the back deck which is right outside our bedroom, earplugs for sure tonight.

Beat all the turbine powered boats that day :lol:
 
Well alternate plan B, we had a u haul car dolley rented for Jodi to drag one of the remaining cars down to a Ark. since she was dead heading back this trip. But then she got in a tift with gal at desk over the pickup point, they now are requesting we fetch dolley in another town over, about an hour or so. Don’t piss off the red head. Looks like they can keep their dolley. Which ultimately means we are totally burning a trip. Emotions just over ruled objectives. Arghh!
