That canoe is sweet.  Too many things to try to little time.  Where was the fair?

jamie:
been wanting to build one from elm for years . even have the elm picked out. anybody interested should pick up the book voyage of the ant. written by a friend of mine who has done extensive research into the subject. he has built many. one of his best trips was in upstate new york where they hiked in to hunt . took game and built a fir bark canoe with stone tools and rowed out with the game . awesome looking canoe dana . peace
