Hell or High Water?

Probably a good thing I've got my 16 in the backyard.  I may need it before the day is out.  Half of Clarksville is under water and the building my wife works in is under water in Nashville, and it's still rising.  I've never seen anything like it.  We didn't go to work today.  On the lighter side, I sold the Sidewinder Friday, went today and got the iron genny for the 16.  The Admiral says ok, now she will go out with me again.  Got a 4 hp Johnson, real clean, good shape.  The Admiral is going off on a little trip to see her mother for mother's day, I plan to go try out that motor.  Also got a marine radio and a few other things I've needed to finish off this project.  Starting to get excited about the Com Pac rendevous in July now.

Our wishes are with you rwdsr.  We hope that the weather cooperates and lets things get back to normal down there.  My son works for Bridgestone and has spent enough time in the Nashville office that he fell in love with the area.  He hopes to be assigned there in the near future.   (So do we.  Nashville is a much better place to visit him than his current post in Detroit.) 

Keep afloat!

Thank you for the good wishes Mike, and I'd like to see him get posted here to Nashville too.  In Normal years you can sail here just about all year round.

Bob-

Hope the flooding recedes soon and that you're safe. I've heard rumors the Cumberland Dam is at risk of collapsing!

They have been saying that dam is in danger of collapsing for the past several years and have been working on it.  I live on high ground, so if the water gets that high everyone around me is in big trouble.
