Hello everyone!
Just wanted to say that I'm that little girl probably 5 or 6 years old, except, now I'm 10, have braces, and am sick (when will the snot stop?). My little brother (Tor) just turned 9, oh and the baby, yeah, he's almost 6 (we STILL call him the baby though).

A couple pics of Grandpa's old boat

Came across a great write-up about my grandfather and wanted to add a couple pics of his 1959 Norseman boat. Built by the Bellingham Boat Co, he purchased the rough and mostly incomplete hull. Suited him well as he was a Norwegian immigrant originally from the fjords of Norway. My dad swept floors there so grandpa received a 10% discount. A woodworker by profession and hobby, he went to work on completing the deck, interior, etc. Windshield compliments of a smashed 1955 Ford found in a junkyard! Since grandpa died, we've replaced the old 35 hp Evinrude with a 55 hp Suzuki and refinished all surfaces. Don't worry, the old "Tee-Nee" trailer (shown) was also replaced with a solid EZ Loader a couple years back.

Time in Grandma's garden
