Boathouse Bathroom, DONE!


 I needed to create some space on the shelves in my work room so I decided to use up some of the shells I'd been collecting.
It was supposed to be a quick project...if I only knew when to stop!
It took about a month to do the border!
Then I added the water,
then a lighthouse, 
plus 20 other things that I just had to do! 

I actually had to go collect more shells during that time to get it 'just right!'
 (I also scored that oar on a beach combing trip!)
Unfortunately, because the way I sort my shells
I really didn't end up with any more space!
 

 

Happy to be done!
All I could think of the whole time I was working on this project was the new gourd I'd start carving as soon as I was done!
But first, I had to work on 1 more thing for the bathroom...
A couple seahorses I'd carved.
Half way through that, my Dremel took a crap on me!
That would be the Dremel I  carve my gourds with!
:(
Now it's in the shop, sure hope they can fix it!

Billy's 38th Birthday!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY!

We went out for an afternoon boat trip.
The weather looked sketchy so we decided to just stay back in the estuary.
 
 







  As the weather decided to turn on us, 
Dylan decided to do a little "knee" boarding on the way back home.
 


 Pepe got in on the action too!!
