Un-Deja Vu

hunh ?

I was all set to add to yesterday's post, started in the AM and went to P.S. some info.......
I was sure that I had typed a report of the re-build of the marine ramp for the railway.....
Nope, wasn't there

And I'm positive that I did enter that report
Ooops ! losing it

Weather continues the H / H trend
Pretty days, blue sky

The sky opened up and waves of water cascaded down for 20 minutes

" My marine railway was  refurbished.
You might recall that there was a shore restoration done at the cottage where I keep the boat.
The marine railway that launches the bassboat was taken apart for shore work.
Shortly after, w/ help the railway was replaced but the support system was temporary and pretty much ad hoc. An arrangement of stone holding the rails. The fix worked but looked dodgy and was dodgy.

This weekend, the guys that I fish w/ went at the problem. I had purchased 4x4 s and had them ready to go. But the brain trust that I fish w/, decided that paver stones were the solution. Heavy and wide ( too heavy for me hence the 4x4 s ) got slugged around and arranged.
When the guys were done - there was a solid base and rigid, flat pavers on top that supported the rails. No flex or bulge, just a flat surface for the rails "

A reprint from Sunday for me, mostly
