6 hours of frustration followed by 20 minutes of glory

Spent 6 frustrating hours at the boat yard trying to get the boat in the water. First we were to show up at 8:30 because they launch boats first thing. But had to go to the office and get a paper saying I paid--even though I have paid every bill for the last 5 years and they have my credit card. Then they couldn't give me the paper because the guy doing the waxing hadn't turned it in. So out to the yard to track him down and get his paperwork. Then out to the lift operator only to find out they weren't done with waxing and needed to move the boat to do this. So another hour later, they move the boat and start. Of course, when they are done, it is lunch time so we were told to come back at 1:00. About 1:30 they start the process but they have to lift the boat to paint the bottom of the keel. Then that has to dry so we finally hit water about 2:30. Put headsail on and got off the dock about 3:15. But joy-oh-joy, she is floating and running again. We had a nice 20 minute motor to our mooring. But we couldn't enjoy it because we had 10 minutes to get to the airport and pick up friends. We will be ailing this weekend

On another positive note, our condo seemed to be coming along nicely
