This week (Sept. 24th) starts the Jewish holiday of Sukkoth. It is normal for jews to build a Sukkah.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sukkah Please just use the previous web address as a
Cliff Notes refference. I don't want this to be pushed into the pub.
Anyway, we decided to build one on

Ray,
Absolutely marvelous. I believe this is the first time I have seen a Sukkah and to see one on a Mac is a credit to the board! However I believe this will be a handicap for your white hulled

I thought you were going to say you hung some more of your paintings around the boat

Bertrand, Ya think
Rick, No watercolors on the boat. My next mod may be some fuzzy dice. Do you know where I can get any

Very very cool.
Thanks for the link about the Sukkah. Very interesting.
Did you nail that frame into the fiberglass?
Your boat name takes on a new meaning.

...and if I remember my diversity training, if it rains on your Sukkah, it is interpreted that you have displeased God in some way (but you get to bail out and go inside....)
