Winterizing Gabriela
1) Try to figure out if it is going to snow or be 60 degrees - no forecast, map, radar, or local weather is ever correct in our part of the world. 2) Get tired of trying to figure out the weather and turn on the heater in the cabin and watch a football game 3) Check outside to see if it is still sunny 4) Curse the sleet that has now started to fall and open a mojito bottle - go back to game 5) Check the weather again and turn the heater off because its too warm, the sun is now shining. 6) Go out on the dock and scrape goose poop from the migrating geese that have settled in the marina because they believe they have flown far enough south. 7) Go sailing in 40 degree foggy weather, expecting it to snow, sleet, rain, or be 60 degrees and sunny with 20kt winds S.V.

If it will expire before spring, I remove it from the boat Switch the air conditioner from "Cool" to "Heat" Check expiration dates on mixers. If close to expiration, mix them with the appropriate liquor and drink Stow the blender. No frozen drinks until April Take the swim trunks used for cleaning the bottom home for the laundry Remove the Admiral's wide brimmed straw hat from the boat Remove my Panama Jack straw hat from the boat Stow flip flops and sandals Finally, go for a sail. As always, listers are welcome to go for a sail anytime they are in the New Orleans area. Next week looks nice, 70's to near 80. As the Cajuns say "bring yourself on down and pass a good time."
