Splashing around at South Fork Canyon

What have we been up to???

We've had a fun, fun, fun summer...
Our family reunion began in Provo
over the 4th of July with our extended
family and continued up in Yellowstone
with our children and grandchildren.
There were never enough hours in the day...
never enough time... and certainly it just
didn't last long enough....
We love our Family!!!

Here is the primer going on the bottom of the boat...3 coats of primer, sanding after each. Then 2 coats of hardened cross linked white paint.
