To me it’s not a holiday if I don’t get a day off.  I’ve already had a couple of customers in who have the day off and I just feel cheated! It has taken me a long time to realize that showing up for work or staying all day is optional – for other people although it doesn’t seem to apply to me. I was tied up yesterday again and didn’t get much in the way of photos for today’s blog. I didn’t actually miss much interesting as there were a couple of deliveries so we spent a good portion of the day commissioning, washing and preparing boats for pick up. Not much to see there. Outboard commissioning is also a crucial part of the spring process. It is surprising how many people never service the outboards on their dinghies. They deserve the same attention as your boat engines since they may make the difference between getting to shore or being stranded at some point. Anything Can Happen Friday Easter Egg Hunting A virtual Easter egg is an intentional hidden message, in-joke, or feature in a work such as a computer program, web page, video game, movie, book, or crossword. The term was coined — according to Warren Robinett — by Atari after they were pointed to the secret message left by Robinett in the game Adventure.  It draws a parallel with the custom of the Easter egg hunt observed in many Western nations as well as the last Russian imperial family’s tradition of giving elaborately jeweled egg-shaped creations by Carl Fabergé which contained hidden surprises.
