Threw everything I own in the car in terms of boat cleaning, waxing etc. Except: forgot the bag of clean rags. So, I decided: just getting half the boat done was progress. Plus it served as an excellent reminder of why owning an 18 foot sailboat sure beats owning a 32 footer, at least when it comes to this particular chore.
I was sore enough as it was.
Waiting for the boat to dry after the initial scrub down, I took a rod and reel out and made a few desultory casts. Nothin' doing. Which was fine.
Finally, put boat work supplies away and went up to the club's deck to do some work and wait for the storms to roll in. Eventually they did, but there was no reason to have postponed the Oriole game, a full 24 hours in advance. There's nothing certain about a forecast four days out and I guess this year we can knock that down to 24 hours. All the panic about this front passing through...and it turned out to be pretty much of a non-event.
