week 2 Starts with a winter Blast

Well our new guest's arrived last night, we went back to the New Club Pribilof lodge where debbie had a meal fit for a king complete with homemade Pies, Breads and a smoking Spiral Ham dinner waiting, After dinner we went over our lodge briefing and made a plan for the am, The weather forecast was crappy, but we tried to keep positive. It is so nice not having the windows rattle everynight and the wind blow through the house. The new place is complete with Flatscreen tv's, Wifi and cable tv along with a full basement And always warm and within walking distance to the store,church and Museum.

Russ Went and checked the East ramp at 8am and it was good enough to launch, By 915 when we went back the waves were crashing over the concrete with 5-6ft breakers on the ramp, We regrouped and went to the harbor and after the past few days of knowing things were gonna turn we had scouted out a spot in the Breakwall where there was a low spot only 8ft to the water and The nantucket sleigh ride began. Hand unloaded the bankes boat off the trailer and slid it in. It actually went pretty good despite things. We got out and smashed 3 Trophy King Hens and Missed a couple drakes in The Decoys, And russ launched the Achilles and he scratched out a Harlequin and A longtail. For what was dealt us today we made it happen for a great start. The boat is in the water tied off ready for the am again. a few birds less to get the rest of the week as we have a tough weather forecast all week.
See Ya on the Ice
