We finally had our first pontoon ride this afternoon. Lee and Bill fixed the steering and the reverse cable so we felt it would be safe to take it out. Ann brought Jazzy and DD to stay for a few days and we were able to buy a tube! I was so excited to get on the tube but the boat didn't run very well. Bill just put new spark plugs in it today and we figured it would run great!! Haha. I try to have a bright outlook. Well, the girls were able to take a spin on the tube and they had fun. Then we had to return to the dock so Bill could run down and get some more gas. When he got back we were all ready to go! But the boat wasn't going anywhere, Bill said it would go in reverse but not forward. Then we realized that there was still a rope tied to the dock. Well then the boat still wouldn't go, I asked Bill if trying to drive the boat while it was still tied off would have caused that and he said no.
Lee and Bill had just put on the cables yesterday and today so Bill said that one side of the cable must have came loose. I hope that's all it is because I don't want to end up with a money pit:( I'm looking forward to getting it out and throwing the anchor in and chilling and trying to catch a few fish.
Wade called me tonight, it has been about 3 or 4 days since I talked to him. He seems in good spirits but I think he tries to sound happy when he's on the phone with me...but then again, he probably IS happy to be talking to me:) I just can't wait till he can come home. I don't like this prison thing at all. There is nothing I can do for him except try to help him out with money, phone calls and pics. Of course I visit him. I will be able to go again in about a week I think.
Well this is all for today!
