More Proudnesses

Today I took the canoe off the forms and turned it over. :-)  I am now working on the inside.  It officially looks like a canoe.

When I said I wouldn't be using the canoe lifter much longer I meant it.  However right now it is holding up the strongback (with the forms taken off) to act as an extra long workbench for working on the gunwales.  It makes things a little tight in the workshop but it's doable.

I worked the inside a little with the scraper and the sander for the more flat spots (there aren't many flat spots inside this canoe, though.)  But I really have to work on stuff for the League of Women Voters Candidates Forum--I promised my cohorts the prototype invitation letter *yesterday* darn it.  And besides it's so hot in the workshop right now that the sweat rolls off my face and plops on the canoe.

It's a boat! Yay!

& it's good to see that someone is still working on politics.

I don't know that the League counts as working on politics per se as the League is staunchly nonpartisan. But I guess, sort of.

Informing the public is a political act, and it beats working for either the conservative party or the insane party.

Rereading that, it was overly harsh. But given that neither party represents us (or most of the public), non-partisan activism seems like the best choice, still.

We had two glorious nights of cool weather, in which it got down into the sixties at night. Today, it was in the high eighties again.

Back to the nineties tomorrow. I wonder what Indian Summer will be like?

It's still hot in the daytime here, but it seems like it has been cooler in the mornings and evenings. And now and then even in the day there is a little cooling breeze.
