My husband once remodeled a canoe so I know what a pain it can be. He put enough money into it to have boought a new one, then traded it for an two little motorcycles that were only fit for the dump...the bonfire struck a cord there.Lilibethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04031218249072893776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36300005.post-52689997607392471122011-01-04T15:34:20.556+00:002011-01-04T15:34:20.556+00:00I love that story - it took me back to my Thames-s...I love that story - it took me back to my Thames-side childhood. We had a little boat like that, which we took out of the water each winter and stored upside down on trestles. After a few months like that, the planks dried out and shrank, leaving cracks. The trick was, before re-launching in the Spring, to fill the boat with the hose, and leave it overnight to re-swell the planks, then tip the water out. That first row on the fast swirling March current was always the most exciting of the year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36300005.post-89181648825922026282011-01-04T11:01:38.191+00:002011-01-04T11:01:38.191+00:00aaah, rosey, bless her heart.aaah, rosey, bless her heart.Shadowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05999801833389058410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36300005.post-81302896357088041412011-01-03T21:08:23.722+00:002011-01-03T21:08:23.722+00:00What a delightful tale and what a lesson for all o...What a delightful tale and what a lesson for all of us on do it yourself adventures.
