    we're gonna try the "self sufficiency" thing,, have the gardens ( also with the deal comes 100 acres of farm land to use as we want) the animals,, still do my "side jobs" and since i'll be in maine,, start doing some odd boat jobs,, least the easy ones ;)
    i need to SLOW down,, at this rate i'll be crippled like they said i would :rolleyes:
    if the wifers would get over her fear of water,, would make the "build a boat" way easier hehe ;)

    Just say as I say, I can't swim, you fear water so we are in the same boat (extra careful) and the boat is robust and capable of comfortable voyages and I have no intention of going out in stormy weather, or where we cannot quickly flee to safety - up a creek (shallow draft).....

    If you are an old surfer then you know how to dance like Jabiru (Xenorhynchus asiaticus), or Brolga (Grus rubicundus), doing their dance... and you do not even have to be a turkey to dance... :D:D:D
