Well done. The color of the interior is just beautiful, and the projected paint scheme sounds promising. I suspect we will soon see a handsome finished canoe!

Wooden Canoes are in the Blood
For those of us interested in such things I received from the cemetery superintendant at the Brookdale Cemetery, Dedham, MA, photos of the headstone for Fred Brodbeck, his wife Minna, his brother and sister.
The stone reads, "Frederick Brodbeck, 1870-1930, his wife Minna L.K., 1872-1951, Herman Brodbeck, 1866-1940, his wife Bertha E., 1874-1960." On the opposite side of the stone is Fred's sister Emilie and her husband, "John Fuchs, died October 30, 1887, age 34 years 4 months, his wife Emilie, 1860-1950." Fred, Herman and Emilie were siblings. Fred and his widowed sister with her daughter lived together on Washington Street, West Roxbury.

I don't know why the photo placement and size is balled up in the post above - I must have done something wrong. I guess I partied too much during the '70s.
Work continues on the canoe. Paint almost done. Stay tuned.
