Boy howdy is all I can say

Yup.....Boy Howdy!!!

Ya see, it's like this.....I was sit'n on "da porch" sip'n a cup and think'n when up drives "the old man". He owns the place ya know. He says "what ya work'n on"??? I says...."a boat". Now ya see, the reason I said I was work'n on a boat is because I just came back from Walmart with a battery and some wire and stuff for a trolling motor for my blow up bass fish'n boat. I just can't see old Billy Bob paddl'n a boat around some big lake when he can use a motor.

Anyhows, "the old man" just happened to have a trolling motor in his truck. And the price was right....$40, after I put the jews to him. That's considered barter'n....or something like that. It a vintage....I like antiques...Montgomery Wards Sea King 502.....what ever that is. It gots a 3 inch propeller on it and two forward speeds. How comes no reverse??? How the hell I gonna back up???



So now all I gotta do is build a bracket thingy to hold the motor. Wayne says I'm gonna spend a hunert dollars building one. (they sell online for $79) But what could be better than building your own?

Winds are up to terrible again today, but probably not high enough to shut down the interstate like the other day. Played golf ball swak'n yesterday. Was nice till right bout the 4th hole.....here come the wind. But at least I whooped old "pesky neighbor" Waynes ass. Don't ask a score 'cause I ain't gonna post it.

Almost time for the "clock shootout" at the BB corral. If it hadn't been so windy, I would have been there, but my hoss don't like wind either.

  1. Here in Del Rio it is blowing so hard the waves have waves. I am going to find some trees and get out of the wind soon.

  2. Don't need no reverse on that motor, just spin the whole thing around oppisite direction, silly. I agree with Wayne,, order the correct mount for that thing. You make something and leave a splinter on it, you gonna poke a hole in that that rubber boat and make a submarine outta it.
