| Let's Build a Barge |

It helps to have friends who can build and fix just about anything.  Andy is our go to guy.  When we saw an old boat that was about to be scrapped we decided to save her, cut her down, and turn her into a barge.  Here are some pictures of the process.  We now use her for shell planting mostly.
