~*MiniMax Maiden Voyage!*~

Hello Dear Friends!  I hope you have had a joyous weekend!
 
We have enjoyed family time... and I did squeeze in some crafty moments.  For this post... I want to brag about my beloved husband, Tony.
 
You may remember many moons ago when I shared photos of him constructing his homemade~MiniMax.  Well, today was his Maiden Voyage!  Oh... I was so worried he would get hurt... even gave him a big kiss and a tight hug before he climbed aboard!  He was grinning from ear to ear... and was so happy... and I was happy for him!
 
I'm not a great camera person with the video... but you can see...
 
 
 His craft... on his home~made trailer... he can fix anything!

The MiniMax is basically made from two sheets of birch plywood!
 There are a few things he wants to change & make better... and he still needs to hook the steering up to the boat... but he didn't sink!  :-)
 It was a fun day at the lake... and great to see him so happy with his success!
 
Wishing you warm smiles...
 
Betty
