Great Day Memorial Day weekend part 2 Log Pond

Woke up by cows upset cause the bird would not move.  It was mostly cloudy skies and as it progressed it go warmer and we got blue sky.  We turned the a few boats to stern tie them and welcomed some more club members.  We have about 15 boats in the log pond.  Jerry and LJ came by on their way to Sand island and I met them in the middle of the Columbia River in m y dink for a horse trade.  Left over crab chowder for 2 dozen cookies.  Then this evening the club all got together for the dinghy pot luck dinner.  This has been a 17 year tradition.  Everyone gets together on their dinks all tied up together and everyone brings a dish.  Great fun.  Then I took Kay to "love" canal and trolled a little were she caught a real nice small mouth bass, her first on the Columbia (no pics because we forgot the camera).  All in all a great day.
