Flag Day. Put my flag out.
Went out for my first boating of the year on the Chain O' Lakes with Kelly and Kevin in their new pontoon boat. It was a maiden voyage for them as they just bought it. Cruised around Pistakee Lake and things were going great until they tried to go under Beer Cn Bridge which proved to be too low for their bimini top.
Kelly was doing a lot of scrambling to avoid the narrow shorelines and also with other boats coming under the bridge, and then, the motor knocked off. Some jet ski folks thankfully came to our aide and towed us to the nearby marina. Found out we had given out of gas and they switched to the other tank and we were on our way.
Had a couple drinks at the Legion on Nippersink Lake. Then, they took the boat home and we all met up with Glen and Barb at Johnny's Cafe for fish fry and I went to Lake Front Park to see the band Eliminator do their ZZ Top tribute and then met everyone else at the Legion.
