P Doug (WA) Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 What happen to the ladies of this forum? We don't hear from them anymore. Hope we didn't offend :?: Quote
Frank Hagan Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 Yeah, we haven't heard from them in a while! I would expect Adla is again working on her boat as the weather has gotten to nice temps in Las Vegas again. Quote
Jan Williamson Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 Yeh, Adla? Where are you? I have taken a short break, But in the last few weeks I have been going insane with boredom. I had such a whirlwind experience this last summer getting the boat in the water, it is hard to live day to day without something to work on, so maybe it's time to get back into the moanin' chair.

Guest Posted November 10, 2004 Posted November 10, 2004 WOW, women lost for words??? Yea, its pretty quiet around here for sure!!! Quote
Johannah Posted November 10, 2004 Posted November 10, 2004 Sorry, no one being silent at our house. Life just got even busier plus it's a bit hard to think of boats as the water is getting chilly. By Winter time, talk of boats helps to keep spirits up 'til Spring. Just a bit of local news: Tyler came to dinner last month and was just as good company in person as he is electronically. You would be in awe of the range of his interests (cars, trolleys, history etc.). The funniest revelation to emerge is that I grew up in the same neighbourhood and church as his father and aunt (he even pronounces "aunt" correctly, unlike those of you who think such persons are a form of insect). Hope Tyler is doing his homework. Freshman engineering is none too easy. Quote
Tar Devil Posted November 10, 2004 Posted November 10, 2004 Hi, Johannah! Been a long time! Later, Phil Quote
adla Posted November 10, 2004 Posted November 10, 2004 i'm here...currently at my desk painting my nails.... what? i have done a few little things on the boat and made a built in bookshelf for my entry way... http://adlacearl.com/v-web/gallery/albums/The-Mastiff-Gallery/IMG_0003.thumb.jpg http://adlacearl.com/v-web/gallery/albums/The-Mastiff-Gallery/purple.thumb.jpg This is all off topic...but i also took in another mastiff...(160 lb boy) who had been mistreated....he is doing very well and has a surgery today...but otherwise a wonderful dog...i've decided to adopt him...so, my time has been continuosly short... http://adlacearl.com/v-web/gallery/The-Mastiff-Gallery with any luck i plan to make my hatches this weekend....hopefully it won't be raining... anywhoOo...i am still alive and thinking constantly about finishing the boat...and 8 million other things a. 8) Quote
Frank Hagan Posted November 10, 2004 Posted November 10, 2004 i'm here...currently at my desk painting my nails.... what? Plenty of time to paint them along with the hull' date=' Adla. Oh, [i']THOSE[/i] nails! I get it. Quote
Craig Posted November 11, 2004 Posted November 11, 2004 I just watched the video. Man those are wild dogs!! Boat guards I suspect? Quote
adla Posted November 11, 2004 Posted November 11, 2004 those dogs really redefine the word LAZY....the fawn one is a rescue and had to have surgery today...things had to be sent to the lab...hoping he doesn't have cancer...they actually make great guard dogs - 5000 years of breeding- just to do that. i did get news on my latest crazy idea...why not have a garage built...i am thinking 600 sq feet, my brother said why not 800...hopefully, we can get that started before too long. Next week he is going to get the plans *stamped*???? i just said whatever...hurry up. hopefully, the hatches will be started this weekend...perhaps tomorrow.. Adla Quote
KenC Posted November 11, 2004 Posted November 11, 2004 Adla, Checkout: http://byyb.org/pn/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=1272 Scroll down to the end. Congrats! Ken Quote
P Doug (WA) Posted November 11, 2004 Author Posted November 11, 2004 I learned one thing about a garage... no matter how big you think you want it, double it :? . They are never big enough. :!: My neighbor had a mastif puppy. Even as a puppy he was a gentle giant. They are beautiful dogs. The land mines are easy to find but you need a back hole to remove them!

adla Posted November 11, 2004 Posted November 11, 2004 right...that is what my brother tells me and he is planning 800 sq ft i believe...we'll see if the city will allow it..hehehe i am in one of those stupid historic districts...it wasn't 11 years ago but a bunch of yuppies have moved in and disrupted my peacefull ghettofabulous life. 800 sq ft seems like it would be enough even for me...

Hope Tyler is doing his homework. Freshman engineering is none too easy.[/quote']Thank you for the flattering description! My father also told me that my grandmother was your girl scout leader. Engineering is going alright. It is a lot of work. Thankfully I won't have to retake any classes next semester (in fact I added a 3 credit course to my schedual), but I don't think I'll be making Dean's list any time soon. I joined the sailing team, we race Vangard 420's on the Delaware river, the season's over now and we pulled in the boats last weekend while the top team memebers were racing at Cornell. I'll hopefully be able to finish some work on my dory when I go back to Allentown for Thanksgiving next week. Quote
capt jake Posted November 15, 2004 Posted November 15, 2004 Speaking of 'where are they'; where is Barry??? Quote
capt jake Posted November 20, 2004 Posted November 20, 2004 I received and e-mail from Barry today. I am glad to hear he is doing well but I won't post his whole message hear without prior approval. He is out of the country; thus he has not been able to post or keep up here. Sounds like life is still full of adventers and fun things for him. I am looking forward to hearing from him later in the week. Take care, Quote
