Either live bait or find every single shady spot and matted cover I can find.

I got the Ooni as a Christmas Gift and have yet to take it out of the box. I think it's going to make it's way to my summer home. Me thinks it will get more use there. As a side on Chicago Pizza. Instead of your traditional yeast cornmeal/flour dough, I read on another forum about making it with a pie crust. I used my butter shortcrust pastry recipe I make apple and blueberry pie with. That pizza was off the chains!

Really? Tuesday will be in the 70*'s here with plenty of sun. Be a good time to take time off and get the mooring out and launch the Loon-A-Sea!

Cool man! What did you end up doing on the inside of the transom? She looks like a million bucks!

Snow was gone by dinner time. Finished the spring clean today, yesterday was just a mess with intermitting rain. It was a good day to pick up my boat and haul it to Maine though. Dad tagged along and we had a Martini and lunch. He's 82 y/o so my time with him is running out, so always a treat.

Through the nose like a worm on an EWG hook and tex-pose if in thick veg, exposed hook in all other. I used a swivel to keep the tube from sliding down.

Agree, Reinhardt is a very good resource. 80-90% hydration? Good golly, that's almost a poolish! I've gone up to 75ish% for a ciabatta, never ventured into the 80% range. Can't imagine working with something that wet. Might be something to try though. You have my respect for the boules your making. Good deal Deep.

Agree with the above. You can up the hydration level of the dough for the home oven to maintain moisture levels as well.

Love making pizza. The dough, the sauce and have made mozzarella cheese as well. The cheese process is a bit messy and somewhat time consuming, but you can't beat fresh moz. @Way2slow, that pizza look awesome! I don't have an oven like that but I'll be looking to break this in soon. Every now an then I have to have a slice of Chicago.

She’s home.

That's actually surprising considering the heaviest was west - central MA and north. I was down at Bryant University, RI today and they had more...We'll be mowing our lawns on Sunday...LOL

We're seeing building materials up 15-20% plus. 6% increase over a 2 year period isn't that bad.

Just got back to me. He's seeing a 6% increase this year. I actually don't think that's all that bad.

I purchased my boat just after Labor Day last year and so far they haven't gone up in price bases on "build your boat" option from the website. I texted the Northeast rep to see what kind of price increases he's expecting this year. Haven't heard back yet, but he's pretty good about responding.

It's weird. It's like a 50-50 mix on reactions and it always seems to be on the second shot. My son and I are getting our second a week from Saturday. Both Pfizer. I'm hearing a booster (shot #3) for Pfizer inside a year. We'll see.

T-Rig is by far the most successful rig I use for tubes. Not sure why, but works for me. Great on a spinnerbait too!

Well it made it past 495 and well into 128/95

I was gonna say, I'm not used to Rated G material from him...?

Much needed rain right now, haven't seen the news. How are you guy doing in the Berkshires?

I'm anticipating this as well. Once people feel safer to travel, they'll dump the boats and will spend money on vacations again...or when they get their first boat maintenance bill, whichever comes first. ? Glad I got mine when I did. I think I lucked out.

I hear ya Boom...Fortunately for me it's not making it's way much past the 495 corridor, unfortunately, it's potentially extending to my home in Maine where my boat is going on Saturday...UGH!...Oh well, it is New England and you leave the snow brush in the vehicle year round. ?

OINKER FOR SURE!! Sweet man, congrats.

A pain? I don't think so, not as much as a car or house or any other big dollar item. Like most have said, you have yearly maintenance on a boat. What's that old saying: "treat it right and it will treat you right" or something like that. You also have maintenance on your car, house/property. But you knew that when you bought into it. 2 stroke vs 4 stroke? I've had both and have no preference other than the fact that 4 stroke is way more enjoyable to have a conversation in when operating. Good idea man.
