Dock on Lake Bowen

On Monday 2/13/12 we installed a dock on Lake Bowen.  The ramp and stationary were in good shape so the man only needed a new dock.  We unhooked the old dock and put the new one in place after school in the freezing cold!  It didn't help that my waders had a bad leak.  The first picture is the dock being towed behind the pontoon to the work site.  The last picture's quality isn't very good because it was getting dark.

First Dock Installed 2/5/12

We had a beautiful week this week which allowed us to get the dock stained so we could install it this weekend.  The couple that bought this dock wanted a handrail instead of our usual post and rope, but I think it turned out very well!  On Saturday we put the stationary in and had to quit due to the rain.  So today after church we finished it up by hooking up the dock and ramp.  We still have to finish staining the hand rail and put in the storm poles.  I will post a few more pictures after we have everything finished up.

The pictures below are of the dock completed with storm poles installed, stain finished, and ladder installed.

First dock of 2012

Today we built our first dock of 2012.  We had a really blessed year last year and hope this year is even better!  This dock is sold to a couple that lives on Lake Blalock in Chesnee, SC.  We will be installing the dock next Saturday if the weather cooperates.  I am planning on taking pictures of the installation process to post next week.
