If there was a choice of getting them earlier in the season or having them stay up until Labor Day I would choose the latter.
True! I Was speaking to the gas pump “attendant” while filling up the other day at my marina. I hadn’t seen this older guy before as it was all youngsters doing the job. I asked where the regulars were and he said “they all left last week to go back to school”
In addition he said that they were getting some high school helpers to fill in for the remainder of the season.
Just another reminder of how quickly our boating season slips away! Pun intended!
