After you look at Dorine, scroll down the page and look at the Pacific! Than
one really blew me away. BTW I have a couple of pictures somewhere of glass
bottomed steam sidewheel tourist boats off Catalina Island, California in the
early part of the century. That would be a project!

I am humbled and inspired. All that wonderful modeling AND live steam
to boot! Wow. I wonder if he's ever but her in the water? This fellow
has entirely too much time on his hands.
AN ENVIABLE PLACE TO BE!

Did you see that, David?? RUNNING WATER in the BATHROOM??? Well.
I've got running water in MY paddler too ..only difference is I'm
still trying to PLUG IT!!!

Nonetheless, "Dorine" is a superb model.

Hay! Running water is running water. Having been in the marketing
"spin" biz in the past, we always said "if you can claim it publish!"
Fine work like this makes me appreciate what a retirement could be like
for me. The missing key elements are the REAL workshop with all the
right tools and the funds to fuel the passions. The Paddleducks keep me
under control while raising the standards. Keep growing!
