What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?

Got the boat out of the water today.
They started taking the lake down yesterday but honestly, it's higher now than I've ever seen it at this time of year.
It was the nicest day all year for us couldn't believe it.
We'd only been out 3 times all year.
Wish I could have taken all of you guys the water was like glass.
So cool for September....
 
That reminds me of a great song but it wouldn’t be appropriate on this family friendly forum, plus I’m already on triple secret probation.

I have never seen so many Swans in my life. Several mated pairs and their goslings. There were probably 25!

Welcome to being a pet dad. I would say I'm surprised you didn't already know about this but I'm assuming you've been skipping your meds again?
 
I just got home, I want you to know that I miss you all so much, although sometimes I try to read, tiredness overcomes me and I know that I'm missing too much from all of you, soon everything will be back to normal, I love you all
 
Ok, I went to see my doctor today. He asked me about my bowel movements. I said I have one every day at 5:00 am but I don’t wake up until 7:00am.

We love you too Luis. There's a big gap when you're not here. We need to do a better job of keeping you caught up on the thread. Just like you do for us
