We spent the morning working on the vacuum pump and tank and discovered the pump is not pulling down a vacuum. That’s not good. Parts for our particular vacuum pump were not on hand, it is a 21 year old system after all. They did have what seemed to be around 15 other pumps in stock, just not the one we needed. Go figure. Instead of hovering over the guys shoulder, and I hate it when that happens to me, we played Yahtzee on the lawn with some giant wooden dice our daughter gave to us.
Around 1:00 we got a maintenance update and parts were ordered, that’s good. They’re not coming until tomorrow, that’s bad. So, what’s a feisty young couple to do? We fired up the engine, skipped town, and went to Sylvan Beach on the other side of Oneida Lake in search of lemonade. 🤗🍋
Guess what we discovered? Yup, a sandy beach and we made full use of it! We also suspect that it’s bike week in Sylvan Beach. They were parked along the road and a live band was playing some good ol’ classic rock.
We grilled some burgers on the boat then went into town to enjoy some music. We stopped by Harpoon Eddie’s for a sunset drink before heading back to the boat.
It was a great afternoon at a place we’ve never been before. I could do this all the time, yeah, all the time.
