We're in the final run up to the start of the sailing season. What a relief! Chicago's winter weather was a little much this year. Especially last Saturday's snow storm.
Prior to the snow, we took advantage of the unseasonably warm weather to get some preseason work done. The houseboat was pulled out of the river, where it spent the winter, and had a fresh coat of paint put on the bottom. She'll get some more paint in the next few days when the weather cooperates.
AEL Catering made a surprise delivery for St. Patrick's Day. Chef Andy doesn't just do German food well. His corned beef, cabbage and potatoes were delicious. We also appreciated the beer that came along. The following day, when we departed Canal Street for Belmont Harbor we weren't as fortunate. In short, we had some provisioning issues which led to extreme measures.
Zach was successful and we enjoyed the view for the rest of our trip.
