Spending Too Much work hours in my Fun Time

Last weekend the weatherman predict a total rain out.    I know that  no one is going to be up at the lake because of the weather report so I decided to stay in Brooklyn and help out with the club kayak repair days.    I need to put my time in the Brooklyn clubhouse for political reason. I just love club politic (hint: heavy dose of sarcasm there).    I showed up at 9:30 AM to find only Cindy is there for the workshop.  Yim showed up at bit later so it just the three of us doing the boat repair.  I don't mind, I prefer to work by myself anyway.    I wanted to do some work early in the season because I mostly end up not being at the club for the rest of the summer and people are complaining about my affinity for the lake. There is a bit of friction between the small group of us that prefer to be up at the lake and the leadership in Brooklyn.  For some reason I end up the person catch between the two.

Yim and I work on epoxy and fiber-glasses three of the kayaks.  I rather enjoy doing these kind of work.  As usually I underestimate how much time all these work take.  I was planning get in some kayaking on Saturday but end up working from 9:30 AM to 5 PM.   It was a productive days, we take 6 boats off the out of service list.    

I stop by on Sunday to do some more work on three kayaks that need new seats.  I also do some more epoxy work on a boat that I wanted to get ready so I can bring up to the lake.  I would have get this done on Saturday if I know.  The biggest problem with epoxy work is waste.  I like to get all the boat that need epoxy work done at the same day so we don't have to mix a couple of patch of epoxy for little job.   I really should not care so much considering the club is paying for the material.   On Sunday I called it quit at 1 PM, and go out paddling.   I should have eaten lunch first before I go out but I was anxious to get on the water and I get a partners for the paddle that want to go out at 1 PM.  We go around Canarsie Pol and was back by 3 PM.   

I almost complete my require volunteer time for this year, and I score some point with the power that be at the club in Brooklyn. Not bad for a "rain out: weekend.   "rain out" because it turn out to be  a beautify weekend, overcast and a couple of drizzle but nothing that would impede kayaking.
