: Hello Bill,

: 3,000 miles? Where on earth are you located? And dont let my Alaska pics fool
: ya, Im now located north of the Spokane, Wa area... Still 3,000 miles?
: *If you ever get in the area, be sure to give me a headsup.. we have some
: nice water here

: And yes, I will be making these boats rigid. The Flea was built w/the plywood
: cross sections with red cedar stringers. Im looking forward to doing the
: same again. Probably a different skin this time.
: And you have offsets for me???? I see that Tom offered them as well... I am
: just totally excited and in debt to you both. As a single mom on a limited
: budget, Lilly and I are limited on our outdoor recreational opportunities.
: Kayaking has become one of the greatest recreational fun we have on our
: days off. Its a fantastic opportunity for her and I both and Im just
: thrilled to be able to give here these years of memories.
: Anyway... before I get all sentimental on ya.... where was I...

: Oh yes, so, the Sea Pup offsets... they can be emailed?... excellent!
: I've been putting this off for too long, it will feel great to get it
: started.
: Lilly keeps reminding me that the first kayak we built, was finished near the
: end of the paddling season in 2007 and she'd rather I get this one
: finished at the beginning of this season. Hmmmm... not a bad idea.
: Our lakes are still frozen.. can you believe it?

: I sincerely look forward to hearing from you.
: Thank you again for your time.
: Warm Smiles, ~Heather and Lilly

Hi Heather,

OK, 1700 miles, a little closer

I'm just west of Chicago.

I should have the offsets tonight or tomorrow, I'll send them to you.
