June 30th Boat #2 project

Note the cool decals on the side windows they are from the defunk Pacific western air lines the boat will be called the flying goose

Roger and Susie's Travels Well the last few days I have been working on boat #2 not the one I am tring to sell after getting this one out of the garage and building a shelter over it so I can work with out having to pull a tarp off every time I have concentrated on getting the winshield back on (quite a feat) but it is happening. We must remember this is 1980 vintage so everything has to be cleaned repainted etc just another step closer to the end product

June 26th catch up time

opened the hot tub to check cemicals etc and noticed a tree frog enjoying the ombience of the hot tub???

Johns new pitza maker

John invited Susie and I over for wine and pitza looking good

Now when I think of home made pitza I think of those frozen things you get at the grocery store not these ones John makes them from scratch so if he invites you over for pitza don't think frozen say omy god what time do you want me there 

Looking good

Cover over boat pretty close to finished so I can work out of the weather the lattace is so it is a little more pleasing to the nieghbours
