Manning, Shamus and I showed up at the leisurely hour of 8 am to participate in the mono clean up. After getting instructions and a spot, we set off to clean up left over fishing line at around 8:45.

We were given the south side of City Island to clean up. We found some but some as much as we'd expected. All 3 of us had a small pile by the time we were done.

Others, judging by the big pile back at the Sailing Squadron, found the mother lode.

All in all, it was a decent morning on the water (though we all felt naked without fishing rods), we gave back to the resource and they gave us a free lunch afterwards.

Something tells me I'm going to have a dream with hula hoops tonight. Man I love community service.

[Manning]

Sweet dreams Bill.

Close but she was more plane looking which added to it. Wait a second you were there staring , you know. She wasn't spectacular but she had a certain something.
