So after making appointment for Tuesday to be hauled out we figured one more sail! Even double checked and made sure getting hauled on Tues. at 2 pm. Call Bob for the last sail. Planning on removing sails and batteries off Twizzled after a short sail today. We all get there, stop into office to talk about shrinkwrapping and make sure they will be hauling on tues. as Norine taking a half day from work. Secretary informs us...boat is out already!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We said, who ok'd this?????????????? No phone call, nada!!!!!! Secretary gave us the "i'm only the messenger" and she said but they have stuff to offload. 63 mile drive, planning on sailing...very Twizzled sailorette's!!!! So I said..we didn't bring ladder, you better find us a ladder somewhere!! Soooooo...we go to boat, take of sails, offload cushions...waiting on the batteries...the marina can do that when we come Tues. for the outboard. Deranged. And too rub salt in the wounds...owner walks by and looks up at us trying to derig boat and yell's up.. "what's taking you so long?" Somehow I think if there were 4 testicles on the foredeck instead of ovaries he wouldn't have dared made that remark! So we'll be sending the other half of winter storage fee that was due before haulout...when it's convienent for US!!!! So we finished offloading boat..stuck poor Bob on the glovebox (head/shoulders in back seat on cushions/sails..torso in front..sorta) in between us and went to dinner harborside and watched the other sailboats. hmpfh!!!!!!! Glad Twizzled going to Boston in the Spring! And to add to the day...slammed my knee on the spin. pole ...swollen and walking like Peg Leg Pete the Pirate! mortrin and bag o frozen peas as I type! Twizzled, Twizzled, Twizzled... :-)
