onthewater102 Member Registered: 04/14/05 Posts: 1649 Loc: Kent, CT	Yeah - this was refreshing b/c it wasn't through one of those luvie duvie peace love and happiness websites that spew fantasy happy-crap all day long...this is a guy's boat restoration thread that just happened to be next to a flooded Houston suburb and was able to help. To me what was especially uplifting was he wasn't alone, by later in the week these people were waiting in line hours to launch/retrieve so they could help others.

And I'm betting a ton of CTFers would as well. Thanks for sharing. My older son is in Houston, Mom and a sister in Florida. Been a tough couple of weeks. They are all OK, thanks to folks like in that story. Dan B

swwind Member Registered: 06/10/03 Posts: 15005	That is a great read. Great post. I wonder if may CTF can fund that fellow a new prop and send it to him. Just a thought. ""Happy Talk" . . . . .
