Cruising the lake again, finally.

It has been several weeks since I posted and I am not gonna be able to catch up now, but I am so excited I just had to share with all my friends and family. We have searched high and low and tried to become knowledgeable on the perfect pontoon boat to buy. We tried one out about a month ago and we really liked it, mostly, but I got motion sick in it for some reason and something about the seats just did not fit right. The front of the boat stuck up too high in my opinion, and I knew I had to ride in another pontoon boat with 3 logs to see if they all were like that, It rode smooth, had the power and was great but just did not fit right. We spent a Saturday driving around looking at boats in other towns and giving the new van a good test, but we were not able to ride in one that day. We had planned to spend Mon and Tuesday of the next week finding the perfect boat and at least ride in another one, however it rained and just did not work out, then we got side tracked with dad going in the hospital on Thursday and then on Friday going to Vicksburg to watch Tyler and Blake play football. So as you can see we have been busy in many directions. The good news is Dad got to come home from the hospital today. This morning I got back on the list of business stuff I need to take care of and called Nelem's to test out one of their pontoons with 3 logs. We had looked at them and knew the one we wanted to try out and it just so happened they had put it in the lake yesterday, because they sold the demo they had in the lake. IT was wonderful we drove it at 11 a.m. and I knew it was the one, Mr. Nelem told us to come back to get it at 4 or 5 they would have it cleaned up. I tell you I just love doing business here. It will be a week to 10 days before I have the money arrangements completed and he was willing to let me get it now just on a hand shake. I went to see Dad at the hospital and share the news with him and he seemed thrilled for me and him. I am so glad he is doing better. We drove over to get the pontoon and it was spotless and I got to drive it home... woo hoo. Its wonderful is all I can say and I can't wait to take some nice long pontoon rides without worry of motor quitting.

The seat is adjustable for short folks and very comfy.
