August 10, Saturday, 2013

Up and standing on a dock at 5:30. Many bass boats with huge motors coming in for a tournament. I helped launch all 13 by 6:30. It sprinkled on them as they assembled and departed together. They came back at 3pm.
At 5pm a cat fishing tournament began arriving. They departed in sequence according to numbers they drew from a hat. All gone by 7pm.
As I lay on my porch (the uncovered part of the raft) a shrink, really a psychiatric facility administrator, came by asking some very peculiar questions. I think he was verifying my sanity. When he thought I might be same, he mentioned his girlfriend, Carol, was waiting up in the parking lot inside his car. I went with him to the top of the boat ramp and watched her unlock the car. I introduced myself to her and asked enough questions to verify his (Paul's) story to me. That was a nice amusement for all of us.
Good night, father.
