So busy accomplishing "DICK ALL"
Well sort of. It was a weekend of running around mostly. Saturday was a supply run to the “Burg” and Sunday we took in, for the second time, the Tackaberry Collection. I don’t know if I told you about the Tackaberry Collection before but this is an ama…
Another productive day
in the boat shed even though I was totally on my own. My primary Epoxy Glue Mixer Upper is down with the Flu and the project supervisor was attending to her needs with some snuggles and sharing of warmth!I trudged on out in the cold and the damp and so…
If it appears that I may
actually know what I’m doing, then I apologize. I don’t have a clue what I’m doing!

Bumblebee: [through his radio] "Message from Starfleet, Captain… Let’s get to it!"
After a short and not so much snowy winter it’s back into the boat shed. The pictures of a few other TW28’s underway as well as the launching of Fabio’s TW28 have re-invigorated me (somewhat!). *Yeah!*So I’m looking at the fwd bulwarks where they wrap …
Had to scramble up on the shed
last night to fix a rip in the plastic. Lori stood by on the ladder in case I took a tumble. At least she could try to break my fall! Lucikly there were no injuries and the rip has been temporarily repaired with “Gorilla Tape” (good stuff). I’m not…
