And now it's ..............................OKTOBERFEST!!!!!!

 

I have to finish this lady soon or someone will start a conversation on the Large Hadron Collider and Higgs Boson.  But not today.  Today is fishin' for Cut Throat trout !

 

I can report that the anchors are on board and the rigging of the anchor tackles is in process :)

Yeah, but you forgot the pictures Augie, and you KNOW what that means. "The Voice of Reason" will be on to you quicker than a rat up a drain pipe!

 

All this talk of moose reminds me of the credits for a Monty Python film:

 

Moose trained by:

Moose fed by:

Moose dressed by:

Moose chauffeur:

Moose hair stylist:

 

Hmmmmmmm..................

 

No Moose were harmed in the making of this build log! (yet)

You guys get Moosehead down there!?! Sweet.... :)

The ironic thing is I don't even drink.  I just googled alcohol and moose and picked the first thing I saw.

 Paint? Moosehead?  Beans? Tents?  Sjors - the voice of reason?  I've finally seen it all...

Just got back from vacation and while catching up on this log, I came to the exact same conclusion!!! :huh:  :blink:

Don't want to upset the balance, but a few words about the build :P  :D  - she's really a very lovely ship Augie. Looking forward to your decision for the next build!

Ahoy Augie :D

 

I would love to tell you whether I will be painting or not; but the community has made it clear they do not think it is a good idea. Being a good listener I have decided to hold off until as Ben suggested, I finish the upper level planking.

 

I hope we will not be waiting that long for your decision,  "slow" being my middle name.

 

Over the last week "stagnant" could be a better choice. "lol"

 

So the question is "are you a good listener" :P

AHA!  So JP does have a reason for keeping us all in suspense!  No need to listen to the wishes of the masses.....that beautiful Rattlesnake you're putting together will look great no matter what you decide.

 

Back to the shipyard tomorrow after still ANOTHER fishless day under the watchful eye of still ANOTHER moose.  This is getting old ......the fishing, not the build.

 

FLOYD-  May as well go for 100 at this point  and then let Shaz go for the record  :D  :D

Augie,

 

Would a moose license be better than a fishing license right now?  I realize it's not hunting season yet....  Hmm...maybe the fish are waiting for hunting season to show themselves?

 

And yes... we're waiting on seeing your anchors... <taps foot>

As Monty Python seems to be popping up regularly all over the place here, no need to get a moose licence Mark; Augie can just use his fishing licence, cross out the word "fish" and write "moose" in crayon! :P :P :P

Once upon a time, there was a website for model shipbuilding.  And a guy named Augie decided to a build a model ship.  So he started a build log....  the rest, as they say, is history.  :D  :D  :D
