I removed the electrical cord that runs from the on-shore power outlet to end of the dock and connects to the electric motor that lifts and lowers the boat on the boat lift. It seems as if it were just yesterday that Rick and I stalled the cord.
That last bit of maintenance was all that I needed to do to get the lift and dock ready for removal. Shore Brothers will be here tomorrow to take out both docks and the lift at the cabin. The boat lift at the house remains in the water since it is protected by the harbor.
The temperature today is 48 degrees and the wind is out of the NW at 10 mph. Forty-eight degrees outside isn't that cold if you have heat in the house, but for some reason our furnace is not working. I called a company in Bemidji to schedule a time to come out and fix it, and unlike being in San Jose, where the company would have come out in 10 days, the repair company from Bemidji was out in a matter of hours.
It turns out the ignition switch on the furnace had burned out and needed to be replaced. Since the repairman was already out, I had him do a thorough check of the furnaces at our house and cabin. With both in good working order, he left.
With the boat on shore, sitting on the trailer parked next to the garage, there was no fishing on Leech Lake today.
