My Gt Grandfather was a watchmaker. My Grt Uncle was a watchmaker. I have the last watch made by the first, and the first made by the last. Both pocket watches. I have my Grandfather's...

Oh, dear, such kindness and honor…

It’s been a busy year – I’ve been engrossed in restoring my Father’s 8mm films and have, figuratively, been taken all over the country and a little beyond, both...

Hugs, and whatever else I can do...

Happy Birthday, Chuckie. Thank you for your kindness and friendship.

Chuck would appreciate that poster up above there somewhere. ...

Miss you, Chuck. I hope the happy hunting ground is all that it should be...

And, Meerkat, I miss you, too.

I think the odds of getting it back to where it should be are not very good. (I wonder if you removed it, steamed it, and then clamped it to a gig... but I wouldn't bet on that.)

I don't...

Twice this week a 'google' search has dumped me into the WBF...

Chuck, I've got more than passing experience with an iron-ballasted sailboat, tho mine's 20ish years older.

I can provide some...

Who's this Art Reinhert guy, and why does he delete his own threads?

Nice photos, Brian, as per what I remember.

What kind of butt?

11 grandchildren? Better you than me!

Thank you,...

I am humbled by your kindness. Thank you, and also those who passed along best wishes by other means.

:) :) ;)

Quoting my father, "Who gives a rat's ass."

Frankly, I like Auntie 'P's' (Priscilla Peckover) thoughts. "It is the truest form of patriotism to do our utmost to save our country from the crime and shame of an unjust war."

A little birdie told me I should drop in.

Have a read...

Dude! You changed your email and didn't tell me! I've got something with your name on it.

Oh, and someone should do a poll: How long before Donn W becomes a statistic:

I see you tried (in vain I might add ;) ) to PM me. I just tried to call you, but I got a "this guy ain't accepting calls at this time" message. What the hell are you doing, it ain't even 9:30.
...

So I get home and there's this odd message on our answering machine - some bumb guy wants me to fall of my roof - it's on the MWDN website... So now it all becomes clear, including one of my...

Well I think we have a winner (off by one year) esp given the paucity of interest. Given the lack of interest I'm going to pass the remaining lot along to a maritime institution that has expressed...

It's getting pretty bad when one can't give away a sailing adventure yarn... A wooden boat, even. Speaking of wooden boats, there's at least one still giving cruises in Glacier National Park. ...

I was just kicking back, having a beer, sitting on the westerly shore of Lake McDonald when all he'll broke loose. KLAXON flashing lights!! Gotta go!!!

So, I see some of 'my' photos already, but not all of them. That lot is home, in any case. I look forward to the video, it's a bit much for the phone.

Now we're talking! (From Helena with #1 Daughter)

Dagnabit! Here we are, on our way to glorious Helena, and with a minute to log on, NO PICTURES! SHEES, what's wrong with you. :p

BFD

Only one of these guys makes it all happen and, hate to tell ya it ain't the chrome dome!

Boarding now, have fun.

Re copyright, only need the year.

Ummm, well, since it might become another item, I can't be too specific. I will say that it's pretty clear that my father knew some of the people, and had...

And a book karma offering.

It's a true, family sailing adventure tail. I'm guessing that more than one might like to read this book, so I'm not certain how to dole it out. Let's start by...

Sheryl's Dad owned a general contracting business. All wood-handled tools were branded 'WMB', and they, plus everything else, got a spray of canary yellow paint. My grandfather stamped his with his...

And I was with mine for 18 years... Watch your back.

Hey, Spin, yawanning some more dog hair?

Level 6. And yes, I think those limbo guys are lying.

Damn, how'd I miss those horns! Gotta run!!

Well done.

Now, a question of the OP. Can I have talent that I don't have ;).

Lovely, lovely, but I think it's 'Seeger' ;)

Woodies are supposed to be on moorings, it's how it was done. I might actually be a little bit jealous, can you believe it?

Somebody must have some pull. ;)

;)

And thanks (I think) for the kind words.

Oh dear. "So many [interests], so little time."

There's 'ability to', and there's 'willingness to', and there is a difference. The quote above 'says' "willingness" to me. Besides, there were three work parties at Ken and Shirl's, Mark was only...

If I knew someone needed help, and I knew that I could help them, then the presence of Adolph wouldn't keep me away. That one states otherwise is a self commentary.

Well there's a sad, not to mention telling, statement.

Good story, well told.

Well there were a lot of folks present at the wood gathering for Ken and Shirl, and there were other's who contributed funds to supply food and drink. I can attest to Mark being there and putting in...

You loose.
