All right! Let's do the arithmetic. Assuming that you put in 10 hour days building kayaks, you still have one day per week remaining to do other things! I have obviously been mistaken all these months in assuming that you hold a job as a CPA.

George, thank you for another wonderful post. THIS is why I frequent this bulletin board. The kayak building stuff is just an added bonus to your posts.
