Here is mine from a few years ago. We have about twice as many lights these days...
I string a garland of silver tinsel around my swim-step to keep the ducks and the mountains of duck poop off it. Does that count?
I need to mention that tactic to my neighbor Mike.
Putting lights up outside today got me wondering if anyone is going to decorate their boat?? The admiral plans on putting up a small tree again this year.
No. One, the wind would blow it all off in a heartbeat and two, if you put all that crap up you have to take it all down.

I should have worded my statement to read that if the wind doesn't rip it all the lights and crap off the boat, which it will in our marina where storms with gusts to 60 mph are the norm rather than the exception, then you have to take it all down.
But most of the time you only have to put it up. Occasionally boaters in our marina get all Christmasy and put lights on their boats. Usually sailboaters---the powerboaters learned their lesson a long time ago. If the strings of lights and other "decor" last a week it's a miracle. They end up trailing in the water shorted out or sunk out of sight.
Bah, humbug!
Marin, do ya want coal for Christmas?
The problem is Santa Claus is not on Marin's pre-approved guest list
That's part of it. We don't need his fat ass and giant toy bag cluttering up the boat.
We're all decorated and hoping for decent weather this Saturday for the Lighted Boat Parade at Everett. Should be fun. Hopefully the weather guessers are wrong again.
Bah, Humbug
