Speaking of lightning. Had plenty of it popping around us today. Went out for the first time really this season, I've run the boat few times to test it out but we packed a cooler for this trip so it was official. Went a few miles and the sky started getting dark. Checked the radar on my cell phone and hauled ass back to the marina immediately.

We got back to the marina just as the downpour came. I dropped the family at the boat ramp so they could seek shelter in the car. Had lightning hitting all over as I was fighting 20+ MPH winds trying to tie her up. Got a little scary there for a while. All safe and sound and no damage.

Gotta love boating :dance
