Twas the night before launching and ........

Twas the night before launching and all thru the ship, there were tools, dirt, and many parts as high as my hips!  The Captain was stirring, the First Mate has gone wild.  When would we be able to put on the first mile?  The weather is threating for two inches or more.  If there is no launching, temps will soar!  The bottom is painted just like she was new, the rudders have new zincs along with the screws.  Those new fuel tanks are loaded so those big Cats can roar.  Lea Lea my wife does not want an oar.  The marina owner Lee plans to go away.  We must launch her tomorrow if not the next day.  The new dock lines are waiting to be tied on a pile, Captain Hyland needs to run her on her first nautical mile.  We will try to sleep all snug in our beds, but I'am sure we'll have the Gliding Gander floating thru our heads!  Pictures will come to the blog soon as they can.  I am hoping you will soon see her off of the land.
