As some know, we survived breast cancer surgery in 2016 and the chemo that was worse than the surgery. The inside joke is " I beat the cancer but the chemo tried to kill me". Jill's birthday is 12/30 and January of 2017, she tells me she wants to go boating on her birthday to celebrate being alive. I said "of course, Babe" Birthday week comes and 2 snowstorms are forecast. 12/30/207 comes and it is 10 degrees and 20-30 mph winds. The motor turned over and I told her to dress warm. The 2 couples invited passed on the opportunity.
We headed to the ramp at Caesar Creek Lake. 2 other boats had launched and somebody had salted the ramp (Thank You). We got the boat in the water and cruised for 20 minutes. It was not horrible going down wind. We had a toast to another year of life. Got the boat on the trailer on 2nd try which was a miracle. We meet our friends at a tavern for birthday lunch and then got the rig back in the barn.
Weeks later, I washed the boat and trailer to get the road salt off.
