An unusual visitor in Canoe Camp, and a side-trip upriver, to Waterloo. We prepared a new camp for paddlers and locals on the Jefferson River! ▶️ DTube ▶️ IPFS

Getting "Lumpy" over to our power source, as I need to continue using power tools. Somehow, I failed to film the loading of the canoe! I'm attempting to catch-up with my video uploads! I was

I've been having issues uploading to D-Tube, lately. Files too big, apparently.  I'm working on this. Stay tuned!

This is always a big day in Canoe Camp! A BIG Douglas fir comes to me in Cardwell, Montana, along the Jefferson River. Dugout Canoe Love is working with Green University on this project. Canoe! Canoe!

Juicy Lucy was one of "The Twins" I helped transform from one big  cottonwood in Missouri.

Let go of what you used to be.

We have finally secured a tree... and she's a big, knotty, Douglas fir! Watch what happens, as we transform this beauty into a fine DUGOUT CANOE! Dugout Canoe Love is here, in Cardwell, Montana! This is

My two latest creations, "The Twins", are on sale for the holiday season! This sale ends December 31, 2017!
