Progress on Boat Works

This is going to be simple. Progress made = NONE. Tom got a new project car that he has been working on. The good news is... the car is going to the Auto Fair in Charlotte April 3rd. So this will be a short term project. So I'm really not saying anything.



Tom has been interviewing babysitters for Boodles. Actually we haven't been out since we moved here. She won't let him out of her sight. But there is an 11 year old girl that lives around here, and she likes Boodles and Boodles likes her. We are going to see if she can take the dog out of sight of Tom and see how she acts. This is pitiful that we can't go out because of a dog. Of course it's our (Tom's fault) that she is spoiled. He takes her everywhere he goes. We have been to the Part's store several times over the last two days. I thought he was being 'romantic' when he asked me to go every time.. then I learned it was so Boodles wasn't alone in the truck. Linda has no sympathy for us. After all she controls her 41 Pit Bulls and doesn't let them run all over her, and we got conned by a 35lb mutt.... who runs the family......





Going through Downtown Elizabeth City there is this sign painted on the side of the building. It's pretty cool. I haven't seen a sign painted on a building in a long time. Except in the photos I have been restoring.



This is the bridge we have to go over when we leave Lamb's Marina to go to Elizabeth City. Luckily I haven't been caught when the bridge is opened. I am not a fan of bridges at all. This is on Highway 158 towards the Outer Banks.

Tomorrow Tom will be working on the car some more, I will be here working on the computer. But I do walk over there several times a day, it's suspose to be in the 70's tomorrow I can hardly wait.

We still don't have cable or satallite for the TV and believe it or not we don't really miss it. I have Internet connection, which is all that I need. We pick up one channel with the bunny ears, I haven't watched Opera or anything since we moved. Instead we have been outside doing something. Tom watches DVD movies on the TV. Well actually he puts the movie in and falls asleep. He gets up early, and well like tonight, it's 8:45 and he has been sleeping since 8pm. (she (boodles) is sleeping too right beside him)....


Tomorrow my antenna should be here for the wireless so that I can get better reception on the internet. I will have to build it, but should work out good.. I can barely get signal from the Router at the marina, I just need a little boost to get better signal.
