OUT TO SEA

Our Scout troop is building boats for their summer activity coming up. Our local paper did an article which has a captivating interview with Gordon and son "Jeffery" (even though he spelled it correctly for them multiple times). Thought you might enjoy!

This is absolutely remarkable! I am just blown away by the whole thing. I heard about you guys building boats, but I did not grasp the full scale of the project. I am wondering if there has ever been another scout leader like Gordon. Amazing!

Wow, I had no idea you were building sailboats! I bet Sam would love to see these. I would have no idea where to start. But I think we have to watch out for that "Jeffery" and make sure he doesn't poke holes in anyone's boats.

I hope the hot dogs sold well today!
Where to start . . .

What would the walmart lady think of Jeffrey and all those fumes! hahahaha -- she was right to be worried. kidding.

Gordon, I'm glad there were a couple pictures because I needed to see it to believe it! My favorite quote was, "nothing a little fiberglass and glue can't take care of." Tarps for sails, even! Amazing. I think it sounds a little like a scene from Stuart Little. :)
