    Stumbling with the red dog

    As I thought more about this, you may have to start without a bumper, on a lead. Practice recalling him to heal while on a check cord. If he stops, turn around and walk. When he gets close, turn to him and squat down. Give him praise. When he has that down, practice it off lead, until he is...

    Vintage duck boat

    It looks a lot like my boat. It was built by Bob Brown in the early 2000s and I believe its built on the plans shared in the reply above. I first saw the plans in the Zack Taylor book. I bought the boat as it looks in the pic.

    Covering ugly welds

    Urban Scaup

    When we lived in Florida, I worked in downtown Orlando and there was a flock of bluebills that would come into Lake Eola every morning and leave around 11:00 am. The history museum has a pictures taken in the early 1900s of women feeding 500 "ducks" on L. Eola and every one is a blue bill...
