The end is the beginning is the process

So this is where we pick up where we left off. I've been a little lame with my posting and my board building until lately. Since my last post so many things have happened. I went back country fishing in Kodiak, Alaska. This turned out to be one of the greatest adventures yet. Four nights in the wild in a tent and the best bunch of guys you could ask for.





I came home with a freezer full of salmon and a burning desire to go back (I think 2013). Then I spent a little time in one of my favorite states, Washington. My wife and I went to what we would find out to be the last Journalfest in Port Townsend. We were able to spend some great days with what I consider some of the best friends you could ask for. After the Holidays we went to Florida to see family in  two locations up and down the coast with a little majic in the middle. That's right, we went to Harry Potter World at Universal Studios Orlando. Good times and great relaxation. March saw me back in Washington for the final Artfest and more creative time with great friends. Then, May. Trip to Texas to see more family and friends. It's the first week in May and I am not ready for 90 degree weather. I guess that is why I moved out of Texas.

Well while all of this was going on I did manage to get a little work done on my waterlog. First I moved the whole shooting match up to my shop where I work so I could have some heat during the winter months, it is Colorado. I have to admit I got a little bogged down with the railing process but eventually got some steam and finished the glue up. I don't know how they teach this class in a week. I guess I am just a little too retentive to work that fast.





After this I got to start some pre shaping and really got to start seeing the fruits of my labor.







Next Time we'll talk about the top and how much fun it is to get to the point where foam board builders start their boards.
