Hey man what a beautiful job. Are you having to work outside? About how much time to get to this point? What a fine looking paint job. I'm going to get sides and chines cut out this weekend. Maybe the stand too. Have a gret weekend. John :P

Noah?

Yea, I get that too... but then I remind them that next time, I hear, its not a flood, but fire. Maybe we should build with inflammable materials???

They kid me on rainy days, of course.

How about we see who can post the first picture of themselves in their boat, on the water, with a rainbow in the background. No Photoshop twiddling allowed. A pot-o-gold pictured at the end of the rainbow will be suspicious, as will Dorothy clicking her red shoe heels.

What prize for the first?

I managed one rainbow picture 20 years ago, but never one with a boat in it!

Always bring a camera!

You think someone can manage such a picture by this september? If you are a Noah, you must have a good line open to the Weatherman???

sincerely,
ks
