DIW. I dont think the pvc docks were there when I went by on Saturday, I would imagine you could launch without them being there.

Thank you for the reply.  The only reason I ask is, being a reservoir, they are pretty strict there regarding water contact.  I'll need to be sure to bring my knee high rubber boots.

Yup, as a few of you mentioned, I should have had it stiched but once I was home and half dazed driving to the er just wasn't in the cards and honestly I don't care about the scar, just another story in my life.

Thanks again everyone for all the kind words on the weight loss...
Jethro... what made me buckle down and get it together was seeing 301 on the scale on my 42nd birthday, I'm on a track right now to be able to pull off retiring at 50 and want to be able to do all the things  I enjoy like camping fishing 4 wheeling and things like that we're getting tougher as I got heavier... basically I got sick and tired of being sick and tired. So I went through my kitchen and gathered up everything with sugar or salt and brought it to the food pantry, on my way home I picked up an elliptical and got to it. Going low carb and full keto at times is what worked best for me. All the work is well worth the reward guys, if need to lighten up some get to it, you'll be glad you did.

Never been a beer guy... bourbon was my drink of choice but I've off the liquor for 15 years now... But I know what your getting at and alcohol in any form is converted to sugar by the body and makes shedding pounds difficult. I'm a coffee guy, always have a mug going just now instead of cream and sugar it's sweet and low with low fat half and half...
As for "unwinding" at the end of the day... I've been know to smoke a little something here and there lol...

Rough to give up the suds. Tried the smoke when I was younger just never inhaled.

That isn't having sex. Cigars are exempt.

It’s not being Cocky if you can back it up.

When you’re good at something, you’ll tell everyone. When you’re great at something, they’ll tell you.

Man, retiring at 50, losing all that weight, congrats, sounds like you are treating yourself right all around. I'm turning 48 this summer and I keep telling myself not to turn 50 being this heavy. I'm about 5'-9" and 260, it's not good. Doctor kids around with me saying "you trying to give yourself heart disease?" Of course a little truth behind every joke. I was fairly fit until about 32 I'd say, used to be huge into cycling but when I moved to NH life took a different turn. I'm just having trouble with the motivation aspect, but I'm getting there! I also got the added problem that I like beer AND I like bourbon!

Jethro you sound like a mini-me except I am 6'-0" and 65. Lost 20 lbs since I retired 9/17 just sitting in a chair for 8 hours a day was killing me.

Right, that's exactly my problem, desk job. When I was in the field it wasn't bad, but now I'm a keyboard jockey.
