Tile Game

 I am currently unable to proceed with my Boat Building plans as my wife, Trisha, broke her right leg and ankle in early June. She did such a good job of it that she won't be able to walk on it for a few more months, so I don't get a lot of time for big pet projects. In the mean time, along with creating a Blog and Web Site, I thought I would have a go at creating a simple HTML/CSS/Javascript Game.

Create a Web Site

I have also decided to create a Web Site. (just for fun) My Journey Starts Here SCROLL DOWN

Create a Blog

 I have decided to create a Blog about my dream of building a rowing boat.

The Annapolis Wherry Tandem

After considering all the pros and cons of what would be the best choice, I picked the one that visually appealed to me the most. The chance to build it myself will teach me new skills and stretch my Brain. I am currently considering buying the plans and building from scratch, rather than a kitset. With current supply-chain issues this will also lessen the potential loss if there is a failure in delivery.

A year out from my retirement

I'm thinking of a new hobby/pastime/recreational activity. I'm looking at rowing, or specifically " sculling ". Outdoors, on the water, in a small boat, preferably with a friend. A tandem rowing boat, mainly for flat water, but maybe able to handle a bit of a wave. Not too big or heavy, easy to handle. What's out there? As an exercise, rowing is one of the most effective total body workouts possible. Taken to the water in the form of recreational rowing, it is a totally healthy and positive experience. People of all ages can enjoy this form of low impact exercise. Rowing as a crew teaches team-building and discipline in the best sense. The aerobic conditioning developed through the exercise of rowing leads directly to better heart and respiratory condition, a better ability to deal with daily stresses and the opportunity to share a genuinely healthy experience with family and friends.
