9 weeks

Lawrence/ New England Spring
Nine weeks is it. I'll be finished with work and hopefully finished with our home and finished with our floating home. A lot has been done. We've packed up about 75 % of our personal belongings and put them in the attic. We've corrected all the issues toward getting a CO from the town, so we can rent the house. We've done all our Spring burning. We've painted all our outside trim. We've replaced our chimney. We've painted all the rooms inside the house that needed painting. The bottom of Elle & I has been sanded and awaits 2 coats of bottom paint. The canvas work is done. The new RIB is on its way. I've got most of the wire I need to complete the electrical work.
We still need to buy the 5 group 31 AGM's and the T fuses. Of course, I have to install all these things on Elle & I, as well as the Solar array and dinghy davits. I'll need to build stands for the mast when stepped down and the shelves I've promised in the aft cabin. We've got some cargo netting to install and we've got to load all our stuff on to Elle & I. The funny thing is I think we can get all this done in NINE weeks. I guess we'll see.
Fair winds & Smooth sailing,
Lawrence S/V Elle & I
