Looking at the Google Maps I've no doubt of that. it is a pity about the lack of rain. Your turn will come though, we've not long coped more than our share Just ask any Q'lder. I think there are very few that would disagree except those Greedy Mongrels at Cubby Station (Cotton Growers) and they would like to try to store every drop that falls.[}:)].

Harleyd, I started melting metal and hearding the puddle last night. I need to buy some sheilding gas so I am welding with flux core for now. I am practicing by repairing a broken umbrella stand. My skills are coming back and your machine is working great. Thanks for loaning it to me.

yahoooo ur on ur way............................I am installing the seatbelt today thanx to you....

So! Did you have your heels dug in to slow it down?? That's slow, for Lefroy, isn't it??

Did you not the new sail?
Ron

ok so I am working in my shop, tripping over everything. was wondering what my other friends shops look like? later Ill post some pics of mine.. So i see everyone liked my old boat. Its hanging fom te rafters in my barn so basically its hanging up side down. Thinking every one south of the equator will have no problem viewing ity !!

boy oh boy... been tooo busy.....the only thing i did was put the lettering on my yacht.. I have a sister who makes signs so she cut me some vinyl "HOLEY MOLEY "
I have a few sets so I put one on the back of my work truck. Did get in touch with my
local skydiving place and confirmed the sewing of my sail.. They make all types of flight suits and such.. Skydance Skydiving is the place if anybody wants to come jump
out of a plane... did it once.. thats enough!!!
Hey bugeye hows the welding goin ? any way some pics soon....

Harleyd, The welder is working great. I am working hard too, but mostly trying to jump start my new career. I need to get to it and cut and notch my tubing soon. Hey when my father inlaw comes out to visit I think he would like to come out to your place and see your wooden boat. He is big into woodworking,he restores carousels for a living and loves wooden boats.

boy am I lame or what .someone come kick me in the ass .. sooo close yet to damn busy to get my sail sewn,.. thats bout all i need to get goin...

your on......

good on ya.... I looked at mine the other day!!!! ok wed , i will take sail to get sewn..
keep it up.. did we see any pics of painted hull?

I stopped by the parachute shop and they hadnt got to it yet... but it sure is windy here. most afternoons we get a sw breeze comming up the valley. the Valley heats up and it sucks cool moist air from the San francisco bay. I use to windsurf alot and you could almost set your watch with the breeze. i am hoping to try mine out on a sod farm( where they grow grass for sale) supposedly there is seventy acres out there and the afternoon wind should be just right. If not the ocean is an hour away, might have to try that, good luck with yours hope the wind gods smile on you.....

Sounds to me the wind has stopped Globally because there is none down this neck of the Woods either.. Wynyard is Flat lining and has been for the last 3 or 4 days..]
Brian, you could always remove the mast and take beast to the top of one of those great big Hill in the Rockies and Try Gravity out You might get some serious speed that way[}:)] I have been watching that silly dang Robson Greene and his Extreme Fishing. Last night the show was over in South East on Trawlers and Heli-Fishing somewhere up in the Back Country. I'd give my Eye Teeth to do that some day. Real pretty country.
