landlocked



A small boat is landlocked behind Alice's Place. It seems to be sailing over waves of blacktop and gravel, far away from a river, lake or ocean.

It's said that the two best days in a man's life is when he buys his boat, and when he sells it.

This boat has been sitting here for at least a year. Going nowhere, waiting for a flood.

Let me see if I'm seeing this correctly. The trailer is on top of the boat rather than the boat on top of the trailer, no?

I'm not quite sure what that contraption is Pablo. I think it's something that allows them to hang the boat for storage. I'll have to go back and examine it further.

Lynne - thanks. Most of the photos (at least in the wintertime) are taken with the Fuji S5000. Fuji is known for it's color.

The place I knew Called Alice's Place is on the Fox River, just outside of Island Lake.
