You have to love it when you and the people you meet here in the rain, get to take their umbrellas and go do something good together out there in the "real rain"----the real world. I met Courtney here on ActiveRain way back when I first started playing here in the rain and we got to know each other as she and I duked it out on our way to the top two spots in Seattle----here on ActiveRain. In those days it seemed like a daunting feat to get to the top, but now I just enjoy sitting up there with Courtney. We met for real, the first time, at the first Seattle ReBar camp a couple of years ago and have seen each other at Raincamps to follow----and have always threatened to work together.

If you want to know anything about houseboats----or floating homes as they are also known----just ask Courtney Cooper.

ck out the "foundation." I was happy to defer to others everything below the finish floor surface. This was one crawl swim space I did not mind NOT inspecting-----although it would have been cool checking out 100 year old logs. The diver brought some trinkets up for us all to check out----like this crawdad----aint't it cute?
