Here's a couple pics Lonna took of the houseboat.

Gotta kind of figure this out. Looks like a small lake to me.     

Water on the boat? I thought that's why there was water outside the boat,,

And if SweetNothin was there,, where is the cheesecake??

The lake is actually pretty large.  We were down at the tail end of it.  Never actually even made it to the main part.  As for water on the boat, man, you don't know how to live.  The evenings were quiet chilly.   Felt great to jump in that hot tub.  

As for the cheesecake, it wasn't around long enough to get a picture.

Looks to me @Freebird like you need a proper river pilot seeing as how you already run her aground. And I agree with @Marcarl in that if your already sitting on the water whats the point in putting a big tub on it. You could have put one in that big equipment shed of yours and saved a passel of money

A couple ???

Do we know the difference between "reacted to verses Commented on" 

At the bottom of the threads there's a window for posting, when I click it to post, it quotes my last posting. What am I doing wrong?

[Freebird]

I'm not sure what you mean.  If you click "Quote" in one of your own posts, then that is what you will get, a copy of that post.  The purpose of the quote button, same as the old site, is to quote something another member has posted.  For example, if you are reading a list of news posts and there is ONE that you wish to reply to, you hit quote and then people know which post your are replying to.  Otherwise, if you jut post at the bottom of the thread, it may be confusing as to which post your are addressing

Simple Silly, having the weight of that water 12' off the water line helps rock the passengers to sleep, also helps pitch the vessel over the waves, providing thrilling Piloting challenges and more memorable vacations stories!

There is the + button to reply to multiple quotes and then there is the word "quote" that lets you reply to just the one quote. Sorry,,, maybe it's just the English way of doing things,, had me the first time.

Oh...and I don't understand your first question at all.

[Freebird]

Maybe I just figured it out.  Commented on means that you actually posted a response,  Reacted to means that you click on the "Like, Thanks, etc" button.

Dad, are you picking on me?

[Freebird]

No,  very likely my comprehension skills.  Or lack there of.

Verses are something we sing or parts of poetry.

VS or vs indicates one as opposed to the other.

Stick around,,,, we'll get you edumacated here yet.
