A bad day last November

I had a serious setback last November..... on the Sunday after Thanksgiving.... I had a fire which burnt my shop and unbelievable amount of stuff with it to the ground. I had just retired and was looking forward to spending a lot of time out there. Still recovering from that but just recently acquired a 17 ft Grumman canoe... which I plan... in the near term... to use as a test bed for proa bits and pieces.
