Hello my friend @redheadpei,
I love your boat! It was perfect. It actually told the story. We probably could make collages from your pictures alone :)
Thank you for your kind words. The sand was an afterthought. I'm glad it worked.
Hope the weather is treating you and your furry friends more kindly these days. We have been having unnaturally mild weather--in the 60s today.
Have a great weekend.
