Bathtub cut down

 I took the jigsaw and cut a step out of the side of the tub to make it easier for Lynne to get in and out. Here the piece is cut, lowered and refastened to help close the gap.
 The first layer of cloth and resin to make it watertight.The next few layers didn't change the appearance much, so I skipped those pictures.
 Here is the final gel coat and the lowered side. You can't step on it, but it's now a much lower threshold. I still have to peel the drip runners off the outside. I got them off the inside already.

Bill at the range

 Bill and I went to the range today. We had a good time and burned up some pistol ammo.
I didn't get very many pictures as you can see. We helped load some cases of clay pigeons into the trap houses for the shoot tonight while we were there.

A nice "weekend"

 This was yesterday's job - getting the lawn mowed. It's all done and good for another week. (or so)
 Today was the day for some fun. I got the boat all hooked up after I fixed a ground wire in the wiring harness.
 The lake was beautiful. There weren't too many people there, no storms popping up like yesterday.
 Hmmmm... Which way do I go? North towards the dam, or to the south end?
I picked north. The water was 88 and it was easy to get in, but a lot harder to get back out when it was time to head home.

Nice day on the lake

OK, so it wasn't a whole day. I had to let the yard dry out so I could mow it. I chose to wait on the lake for a few hours. The water was high, as expected. Still in the mid 80's for temperature, it would be nice for swimming. Next time, I guess. I wouldn't have wanted to get out to come home and mow.
