I was reading about that boat restoration project you mentioned last time. It sounds like a massive undertaking but also really rewarding if you have the patience for it. Have you decided on the type of wood for the deck yet? I remember you were torn between teak and mahogany. Also, are you planning to keep the original engine or swap it for something more modern? The logistics of finding replacement parts alone seems like a full-time job. Let me know if you need a hand sanding or staining anything next month.

I finally checked out that hiking trail in the state park you recommended last week. The elevation gain was moderate but the views from the summit were worth the effort. There was a surprising amount of wildflowers still in bloom near the ridge. I packed a lunch and spent about an hour just sitting on the rocks watching the hawks circle overhead. The trailhead was easy to find but the parking lot was almost full by nine in the morning. I think you would enjoy the loop trail that goes around the smaller lake on the way back.
