Saturday is I think 5 weeks now no smoking. Going strong and doing good. I got my two girls baby chicks and building a coop this weekend.

I have my fiberglass resin and materials for my layout project. Motor still the big thing to get but one day it will happen when time is right.

Happy boating iboat fam!

Maybe you could use some camo netting when you're trying to be stealthy for the ducks?

A couple wraps of netting and a couple camo bungee cords to hold it tight might work.

Splash number 2.0! Its been a long ride that is for sure. Now to search for some more projects. But I do still need a bow mount trollin motor and a fish finder!

Thanks all. Weekend was great. But got one kid down hard fightin something and lice to boot.... Plus the tahoe locked the keys in itself as we were tryin to pack to get to the doctor. Great weekend but ended hasty and crappy. Kid is fightin off something and more doctors to follow.

And 2 million loads of laundry. You know what i mean if you have girls and cant just shave boys heads.....
