Yeah, it seems pretty dead. But if you're like me, you've just
completed your Spring kayak project (yes, admittedly late) and have
been paddling! Man, don't let anyone fool you about building a boat.
The long hours hunched over a boat payoff with all the attention you
receive at every lauch and landing. People are fascinated by a craft
that isn't plastic or factory looking, as they should be since
factory boats look and act boring. I'm so tickled that my kayak is
finally done, I plan on being out on the water until it freezes up.
Therefore, I might not be able to read or respond until it gets cold.
Just thought I'd share my good tidings and keep the board alive.
