How's Fish doing? It was a loooooooooong weekend for him. Even with a bad heart that man worked circles around all of us!

Get some rest Fish! You earned it after all this,

Evening Gents.

I want to say that all that came to build are truly very good people. The wife and I enjoy y'all coming. The group over all lived up to what I was hoping for. Team work paid off great. I just hope y'all took something home with y'all that y'all learn. If ever y'all have a question or even a place to come, our door is always open.

As for myself, I'm beat, BUT it's a good beat knowing I past on something. It was very good for me to really push myself. I know I will pay for it, but what the hell.

After everybody left, the wife and I sat down on the patio and drank a couple beers talking about the weekend. We both really enjoy everybody coming. I want to thank each and every one of y'all for coming.

Looks like a great time. Sure wish i had not had to work. Would have loved to have learned how to build one. Congrats to all of those who got it done, and thanks Fish.

I just wanna know one thing,



Do you call each other by handles or do you switch to real names cause that's gotta get more confusing

I had the pleasure of meeting him while facilitating the transport of the "Josey" pirogue and I've come to the conclusion that he doesn't know how to slow down. Stop, maybe, but never slow down. Job well done, FishFighter.
