A WORKING DOCK


Last week the sun was out and what a beautiful day it was!  Crisp and cold and the Pacific seemed to be living up to it's name, with calm waters........The hopes were high that the crab fishermen would get word that they could hit the water and as you can see, the crab pots were all ready to be loaded up and taken off, to be lowered into those secret lodes of the scurrying crustaceans that the fishermen are so secretive about.   The boats at the Port Orford dock need to be kept on the dock when not working and are lowered and lifted by this enormous hoist.  I think there are only 2 in the country that work this way.  And that isn't working all that well anymore............nothing wrong with the hoist, but the US Corp of Engr. is not dredging the harbor anymore and the sand is filling in so that only a high tide are the boats able to get in or out.  It's a real problem and many minds are working in trying to come up with a solution.  (If anyone out there has any ideas, please share).......
 Hope you're all enjoying your new year and 2013 will bring peace and prosperity to you and yours.......
