On the subject of the trailer - Tuesday afternoon was beautiful so I got in my car and drove the twenty-five minutes north of my office and did a walk around.

Holy cow people, talk about organic medicine. That first stroll the park blows big time wind through your sails. It's a new beginning and you've got to suck it all in as soon as you can because the season always ends in the blink of an eye.

I'm happy to report that once again my unit wintered well. No leaks, no sags, no mice.

I have some work to do on one of my decks, but I've myself to blame. About ten years ago I decided to go with untreated spruce instead of pressure treated. What an arshole move. The 20 year old pressure treated stuff is still going strong.

The Tiki bar is still standing. A little rickety by nothing a few three inch deck screws won't fix.

My dock dips on one end, but again, no big deal, my buddy Jason will put on his wet suit one day and kick out one of the feet and she'll be as good as new.

It's a fabulous time of the year.

I had a surreal moment while I was there on Tuesday. I stood there in the deafening silence, all alone and I looked around.

Soon there will be life, laughter and a lot of love.

The seven month serenity will soon be cracked by the greatest bunch of people on earth.
