: I wonder how many trips down a sand dune before you breech the hull and start
: grinding your bee-hind off.

: Actually, I'd like to know how they climb out and back up to the top of those
: dunes lugging a boat along. You'd get less trips down the slopes than with
: a $200 ski-lift ticket at Sierra Summit around here.

David just sent me this photo and said " I don't know how the rest of the world does it, but out here in California here's how we get it done.

By the way, he built Both!! Canoe and Car ( from the frame up )

He's not too smart though. He invited me over to dinner a week ago to teach him how to do photos on the KBB and we had dinner and got "halfway" through it. Now, I got an invitation to dinner again to finish the job. :) :)

I have the feelin' we may have to finish the lessons this time. He may be catchin' on. :)
