This is about my dock restoration project. Home to my sweet Glastron and the kids' summer.
In October 2015 we had a nasty storm. The dock was tucked into a tight cove in a northwest corner. Steep banks go up from there. Somehow a freak wind came in from the west and ripped the two ramps clean off the shore mounts. I look over the edge of the deck every morning to check the toys and Wham, no dock. We're talking jet skis, kayaks, pontoon, Glastron, everything gone.
I found her down the lake in a fisherman's cove. The ramps were hanging straight down. The pontoon was free. You can't move a beast like this until the lake is quiet. So four days later with my neighbor's help we we able to get the Glastron off the floats and fire her up.
Just after I hooked up the wind came up again. But not enough to matter this time. It moved along faster than I thought. In no time we were back home. Now what.
