| ....when it started to snow, it was a serious mess. | 
| getting down the ramp to the boat | 
| Needless to say, our plans for the haul out and bottom paint were rescheduled. | 
| The snow dumped fast and steady. | 
| Shoveled a trench to get around the marina. | 
| The ice kept growing at the marina. | 
| Some friends built this igloo and partied inside. | 
| They only lasted about an hour. | 
| Snow mermaids, not a common sight. | 
| John breaking up the ice daily. | 
| This ice is over an inch thick. | 
| Removed the ice maker for repair during the haul out. | 
| Just about ready to go in the slings at Schooner Creek Boat Yard. | 
| The hoist up, a mere 60,000 pounds! | 
| Traveling on the hard. | 
| You can tell this boat spend some time in the ocean last year:-) | 
| ...need to clean this up | 
| and replace the zincs. | 
| Arrived at Tom and Kay's. | 
| Our friends put us up for a couple of days prior to attending the Seattle Boat Show. | 
| Another great meal in Kay's galley. | 
| Heading to the hotel after a full day at the boat show. | 
| Century Link Field, Seattle | 
| Kay's new car! | 
| Reunion with our broker, Jeff Merrill and the Miss Molly crew at "Boats Afloat". The next day we headed for Moses Lake. The snow seems to be following us... | 
| Also visited family in Moses Lake, WA during the haul out. | 
| Ready for the launch. | 
| Inspecting the prop and new hull paint. | 
| Celebrating sister Liz's Birthday on the river. |
