The Answer to Prayer was No and Yes

It is snowing/ice pelleting this afternoon so my prayer on Palm Sunday about snow was a no.  However, the answer was yes to all the ice being off the lake before fishing season, which is May 7 this year.  This Saturday!  With the help of a neighbor we put the dock in the water yesterday.  When we purchased the house, this dock came with it.  Hadn't been used in over 5 years.  Of course, it wasn't one of those new, lightweight deals.  It is all steel and rust and, in a word, heavy.  Once it is in the water, it is solid and great to use.  The problem is getting it in the water.  The first thing we needed to do to the dock after we bought the house was to put new tires on it, because they were beyond busted.  Only needed two of them.  My junkyarding spouse drew a template of the placement of the lug nuts and off he went to find some wheels to match the dock wheels.  I am still laughing about what car matched...a Ford Crown Victoria!  The work crew remodeling the house laughed as well.  "You're the only one on the lake with Crown Vic wheels for your dock."  I am sure that is true.  They sure are shiny.  Glad they are in the water for this year.
