Lock queue olmsted8/9/2023 Here you can see the “Diver Down” flags on one of the barges preparing the explosives. ((The wickets were down, so we didn’t have to go through the lock. His instructions were to go slow near the cranes and work boats, as “those guys are handling dynamite.” So, I asked if I could continue upstream, or if I should hang back. So, I radio’d the Olmsted Lockmaster and asked him WHO was the authority (Coast Guard, Army Corps, etc.) for me to ask for permission to proceed. This lock was the down river limit of the 2.5 mile no traffic blasting zone. Just 15 minutes before the river closure. Here you can see the brand new Olmsted Lock. So we sped up to see if we could make it. We had to get to and through the blasting zone before they closed the river! which meant all traffic on the Ohio River would be stopped for an undetermined number of hours. Plus there was a BLASTING ZONE coming up at 10:00a.m. We were up with the sun to make Paducah KY early, as I had some work to do in the afternoon. This particular morning, time was our more valuable resource. Instead of a healthy 2.5K current to help us, we now had just as much current now against us! This adds time and fuel to the equation. These pics show our exit from the Mississippi River to the Ohio River at Cairo Point. We pushed off at sun-up the next morning. This shows our Boston Bar arrival near power cat, Nine Lives. Everyone at this busy little breakfast and lunch spot called Dockers looked happy with what what was brought out to them!įloating Ballards and jumping Carp – Barkley Lock – Kentucky We let Shelly sleep in, and brought her something back. The crews of Betty Gail and Imagine at breakfast with Ray on Sunday.The 390’s usually outnumber 400’s in every venue.This doesn’t happen often! We are surrounded by Mainship 400’s: Mainship 400 -s outnumbering Mainship 390 -s ?!?! Brenda – KD4SRO is also a Ham Radio operator.Ĭhange of subject: We give the spa (Jade & Earth) two thumbs up! Shelly: “Rejuvenating!” Tomorrow an electronics tour of Shellerinais planned as Dave – KN4VS and Ray – N1RY are both Amateur Extra licensees and RF technology enthusiasts. (It is the bigger brother to our Mainship 390.) Earlier today they gave us the nickel tour of their Mainship 400. All we can report is that we enjoyed a cocktail with Bryan & Marcy Holmes of Elenor Grace and Bob & Diane Hansen of Soulmate at the yacht club before shuttling over to the Thirsty Turtle pub to meet up with Brenda & Dave Merchberger of Slo Pace for some grub. Loopers were crossing paths all over the venues of this resort this evening. Thanks Eric! For the introduction to Basil Hayden’s. Ray, Mac, and Deb resorted to the more local Kentucky Straight Boubon: Basil Hayden’s last eve on the fly bridge, after we got back from dinner. Even though we are in Kentucky, this comes from Scotland. Ray Parrish tells me there are a bunch of new arrivals exiting the lock… arriving here soon! Mac and Deb of Janthena signed out one of the marina’s courtesy vans, and we all went shopping and had dinner last night. This resort marina sports multiple restaurants on-site, two swimming pools, one indoors… part of a full service spa (which Shelly and I plan to try out tomorrow!) Rick and Christi (below) of Inked Mermaid were among the many Loopers who rekindled friendships with us and others at this docktails session. Just three weeks ago, Larissa Parker of Knot Fantasea started her new loop! (Names to be filled in soon!) Reportedly, their first passage of their Loop (0.05 nm) from the travel lift to their slip here went smoothly without incident! “Any boating day where you don’t need to call for a tow is a good boating day!” They are looking forward to the great anchorages of the LBL, the “ Land Between the Lakes” just south of here.Īnother (different boat) just launched early Monday. We heard from (2) loopers who were just about to start!įor example Green Eyes (Orin and Sherry Riddell’s) was delivered by truck to this marina on Sunday, and is promised to be in the water Friday so that they can begin their Platinum Loop. We went round robin and heard from loopers who were just days away from crossing their wake!!! Great docktails session last evening, thanks to Diane Parrish for organizing it! Everyone finally learned where Radian Journey got her name! (Ray-Diane Journey!) Stay tuned to this developing blog post about Green Turtle Bay and the village of Great Rivers KY.

Salt life car decal8/9/2023 We all know a Chase, who slapped a Salt Life sticker on his Yeti that only holds 12 beers because he couldn’t afford a larger one. She posts the same picture she took at the beach three years ago on Facebook about four times a year, so maybe that’s her definition of the Salt Life. It’s got a couple chips in it but that’s okay, because she actually forgot it’s back there. Kinzleigh bought a sticker at beach week in Myrtle Beach in 2013 and it still sits across the back window of her Jetta. She put the sticker on the bottom right corner of the back window of her Ford Escape because she already had the Browning heart logo in the bottom left corner. I’m talking about Kim, who received a free Salt Life decal when she bought 4XL Salt Life t-shirts for her husband from Belk because they were buy one get one 50 percent off. Salt Life stickers are an epidemic and we need to help these lost people. Why the hell did I have that stupid sticker? I’m glad I finally saw the light. I go to the beach at most three times a year. I live in the hills of Appalachia, a good 4 hours from the nearest beach (and 6 hours from the nearest good one). Have I ever caught a dolphinfish? Of course not, but I do love to crush some mahi mahi at dinner. Mine even had a dolphinfish in the middle to match my dolphinfish key fob. I too once had that Salt Life decal on my truck’s rear window. When you finally see the back of his truck, it all makes sense: scribbled in white in the center of his rear window is a massive Salt Life decal. As he drives recklessly by you, Cody looks at you with disgust through his white Oakleys. Soon a white 2015 Dodge Ram with tinted windows and black rims weaves around you in the right lane barely missing the car you just passed, his absurdly wide tires almost brushing the slow car. Have you ever been in the left lane minding your own business passing slow people in the right lane while doing about ten over the speed limit? Eventually you look in your rear view mirror with a vehicle riding your ass so hard you can’t even tell what it is.

“It’s like college-you can’t just apply to Harvard and Yale,” says Nitka.Īvoid the Preparation H-Preparation Harvard-topic. Translation: apply to no fewer than five schools. “It’s the best education money can buy and that’s why everyone wants it,” says Victoria Goldman, educational consultant and author of The Manhattan Family Guide to Private Schools. According to Simon, some questions to consider: What kind of a learner is your child? Are they exploratory or do they like to be receptive? This will help articulate what you’re looking for in a school, academically and beyond.Īccording to Manhattan Private School Advisors founder Amanda Uhry, some schools receive over 1,000 applications for 60 kindergarten spots, including siblings and legacies that have preferential treatment. From Montessori to Reggio Emilia, there are several methods to choose from. “While you don’t have to have your child’s IQ tested in utero, it’s not a bad idea to start doing research on schools as you establish priorities,” says Decker. “People get fixated on one or two popular schools-the flavor of the year schools-and those might not be the right fit for your family.” Find your philosophy and core education values. “Don’t just go off reputation,” says Nitka. This gives them enough time to tour, research and find their fit.Ī brochure can be all talk, so it’s important to visit schools, get to know the other families that are attending and find out how the school operates.

Now what? Many pre-schools offer toddler groups and Mommy and Me programs, which give parents a glimpse of the school’s education philosophy, community, teachers and administrators. You’ve read the books and scanned parenting websites. To help with the process, educational consultants, psychologists and coaches share top lessons. “This is a process that’s highly competitive because of supply and demand-there are more families seeking spots in good schools than there are spots available,” says Terri Decker, an educational advisor at Smart City Kids. Many parents view sending their little ones to elite schools, like New York City’s Dalton and Trinity, as a make-or-break pipeline into Ivy league colleges.
