Contractor Mark finally came by to give us copies of these pictures. Mark lives just on the other side of the lake from us and built the floating dock at his place and then "motored" it over to our place. These guys have tried every method of transporting large docks through the water and say this way ranks right up there as the best. Al, the mastermind behind the idea, has been thinking about this for some time and this was the maiden voyage for his plan. Here are some pictures to show this adventure.

| Under way and everything is going according to plan |
 |
| Somehow, this picture makes me think of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn...or is it Deliverance? |

| Anchored at the rock here and fastening the last of the deck boards after the motor has been removed |
We love our League of Extraordinary Gentlemen...very ingenious men!
Cheers,
Mimi
