  I thought this was just some abstract idea when you came up with it a while ago.  Good to see you are going through with it.  I think a lot of us have had similar thoughts at one time or another, just never really went for it.  I can't wait to see pictures.

Not likely, Woodchip.  He hates people.  I expect that the only reason that he's doing this is because the moat will already be dug around his castle.

Don't hate people, just some people! All are welcome if they know the secret pass word! And bring cold beer or hot women with them!

Quit begging.  I'll be there at 3 am Saturday morning.  That's about when you normally get up, right?

Ha!  He doesn't even know that 3:00 happens twice a day!

Silly log haulers.  Sleep in all day, haul a couple of loads when it's warm enough, and take three day weekends every week.  Sounds like the life to me. 

I'm also pretty sure that the gov'ment paid for his Western Star.

That's a pretty cool idea.  One thing's for sure you don't have to worry about not having ice to use you're ice fishing gear.

Might be cool to have some viewing windows for watching the action under the flotel.  :thumbsup:
