    Default Introduction from Idaho USA

    I’ve retired from General Contractor and Technical Education Instructor of building construction, welding, cabinet building, drafting but I haven’t stopped building. I will start building the Goose to tune up my boat building skills and proceed to building a trailerable houseboat (Dianne’s Rose). Then I’m onto floating down the Columbia River with an eye on doing the Eastern USA inland waterways. I may be older and slowing down some, ok, a lot from when I was younger, but I’m still on the right side of the sod.

    Thank you. I’m clearing a space in my shop to begin boat building in November. I’m doing this to try and reenergize and keep moving. I’m a 1951 model myself.
